Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated overhead cost a month= 163,150

Direct manufacturing costs= $19 per unit.

Estimated production in units

January= 4,800

February= 8,600

March= 4,600

April= 7,100

Total= 25,100 units

Total overhead= 163,150*4= $652,600

A) To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 652,600/25,100= $26 per unit

B) To allocate overhead, we need to use the following formula:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

January= 26*4,800= $124,800

February= 26*8,600= $223,600

March= 26*4,600= $119,600

April= 26*7,100= $184,600

C) The total cost per unit is calculated using the allocated overhead and the direct manufacturing cost per unit.

Total cost per unit= unitary overhead + direct manufacturing cost per unit

Because the unitary allocated overhead and direct manufacturing cost per unit remain constant during the four months, the total cost per unit is the same.

Total cost per unit= 26 + 19= $45

The following information pertains to Pernell Company's pension plan. Beginning PBO: $500,000; current service cost $50,000; dis
monitta

Answer:

= $560,000

Explanation:

Given that:

  • -Beginning PBO: 500,000
  • -Current Service Cost: 50,000
  • -Discount Rate: 6%  => interest cost = 500,000*6% = 30,000
  • -Contributions by Pernell: 40,000
  • -Benefits paid to employees 25,000
  • -Loss on PBO: 5,000

As we know that service cost; gains and losses; payments to retired employees; prior service cost; interest cost; payments to employees are factors that change the balance of the PBO

So the ending balance of the PBO will be:

Beginning PBO + Current Service Cost + Interest cost Loss on PBO -Benefits paid to employees

$500,000 + $50,000+ $30,000+$5,000-$25,000

= $560,000
