Answer:

86,700 minutes

Explanation:

a. Demand on the mixing machine:

Minutes required to produce 3000 units of A (3000 x 26.9) 80700

Minutes required to produce 1000 units of B (1000 x 2) 2000

Minutes required to produce 2000 units of C (2000 x 2) 4000

Total minutes = 86,700 minutes

Therefore, in order to satisfy the demand for all of the products they would need 86,700 minutes of mixing machine time,

but they only have 14,000 minutes available for each month.

This means that they cannot satisfy the demand with the number of minutes that they have available.

b.Optimal production plan:

Product A Product B Product C

Selling price per unit $ 137.10 $ 74.80 $ 167.60

Direct materials $ 59.70 $ 41.70 $ 100.70

Direct labor $ 43.00 $ 13.30 $ 29.50

Variable manufacturing overhead $ 8.20 $ 4.30 $ 13.80

Variable selling cost per unit $ 15.20 $ 3.10 $ 8.50

Total variable cost per unit $ 126.10 $ 62.40 $ 152.50

Contribution margin per unit $ 11.00 $ 12.40 $ 15.10

Mixing minutes per unit 26.90 2.00 2.00

Contribution margin per minute $0.41 $6.20 $7.55

Rank in terms of profitability 3 2 1

Optimal production 223 1,000 2,000

c. The company should be willing to pay $0.41 for one additional hour of mixing machine time if the company has made the best use of the existing mixing machine capacity for Product A.

For Product B the company should be willing to pay $6.20, and $7.55 for Product C.

Lueckenhoff Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on direct labo

anastassius [24]

Answer:

C. $9.50 per direct labor-hour

Explanation:

The computation of the predetermined overhead rate is shown below:

Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) ÷ (estimated direct labor-hours)

where,

Total estimated manufacturing overhead equals to

= Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost + Direct labor hours × variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour

= $497,000 + 70,000 × $2.40

= $497,000 + $168,000

= $665,000

And, the direct labor-hours is 70,000

So the rate is equal to

= $665,000 ÷ 70,000

= $9.5 per direct labor-hour

g100num [7]

Answer:

There would be an increase in the price of resources for production
