Osborn Manufacturing uses a predetermined overhead rate of $20.00 per direct labor-hour. This predetermined rate was based on a

cost formula that estimates $276,000 of total manufacturing overhead for an estimated activity level of 13,800 direct labor-hours. The company actually incurred $275,000 of manufacturing overhead and 13,300 direct labor-hours during the period.
Required:

a. Determine the amount of underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead for the period.
b. Assume that the company's underapplied or overapplied overhead is closed to Cost of Goods Sold. Would the journal entry to dispose of the underapplied or overhead increase or decrease the company's gross margin? By how much?

Answer:

1. Manufacturing overhead applied = Actual hours * Predetermined overhead rate

Manufacturing overhead applied = 13300 * $20

Manufacturing overhead applied = $266,000

From the question, Osborn Manufacturing actually incurred $275,000 of manufacturing overhead. Hence, the Manufacturing overhead is under-applied because the applied manufacturing overhead is less than the actual manufacturing overhead

Hence, Manufacturing overhead under-applied = $275,000 - $266,000

= $9,000

2. Since the applied manufacturing overhead is less than the actual manufacturing overhead, the gross margin would decrease by $9,000. The journal entry will use the under-applied manufacturing overhead for record.

July 1=> Cash (debit) = 3,500,000.

Prefered stock (credit) = 3,125,000.

Paid in capital in excess of par value-preferred stock(credit) = 375000.

Explanation:

(A). On FEB. 1, the accounts and Explanation is given below:

Cash ( debit) = 2,444,000 {that is from; 47,000 × $52}.

Prefered stock (credit) = 2,350,000 { that is from; 47,000 × $50}.

Paid in capital in excess of par value-preferred stock(credit) = 2,444,000 - 2,350,000 = 94,000.

"July 1 Issued 62,500 shares for cash at $56 per share."

Prefered stock (credit) = 3,125,000 { that is from; 62,500 × $50}.

Paid in capital in excess of par value-preferred stock(credit) = 3,500,000 - 3,125,000 = 375,000.

A company that makes organic fertilizer has supplied the following data: Bags produced and sold 200,000 Sales revenue $ 1,560,00
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The company's degree of operating leverage is closest to $840000

Explanation:

Selling price per unit = Sales revenue / No. of bags sold

= $1560000/200000 bags = $7.8 per bag

Variable cost per unit=Total variable expenses/No. of units

= $840000/200000 units = $4.2 per bag

Company’s unit contribution margin = Selling price per unit-Variable cost per unit

= $7.8 per unit-$4.2 per unit = $3.6 per unit

Company's degree of operating leverage = Variables manufacturing expense + Variable selling and administrative expense

=$660000+$180000 = $840000
