Kunkel Company makes two products and uses a conventional costing system. A single plantwide predetermined overhead rate is comp

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:

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

Total number of direct labor hours= (1,000*2) + (2,000*7)= 16,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,200,000 / 16,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $75 per direct labor hour

Now, we allocate overhead to each unit and calculate the unitary cost:

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

Mercon:

Allocated MOH= 75*2= $150

Unitary cost= 150 + 8 + 10= $168

Wurcon:

Allocated MOH= 75*7= $525

Unitary cost= 525 + 6 + 11= $542

Finally, using activity-based costing:

Mercon Wurcon Total

Engineering design time (in hours) 1,000 1,000 2,000

Direct labor-hours 2,000 14,000 16,000

Engineering= 600,000 / 2,000= $300 per design hour

Direct labor= 600,000 / 16,000= $37.5 per direct labor hour

Mercon:

Allocated MOH= 37.5*2 + 300*1= $375

Unitary cost= 375 + 8 + 10= $393

Wurcon:

Allocated MOH= 37.5*7 + 300*0.5= $412.5

Unitary cost= 412.5 + 6 + 11= $429.5

A manufacturer is contemplating a switch from buying to producing a certain item. Setup cost would be the same as ordering cost.

Luden [163]

Answer:

c. 30 percent lower.

Explanation:

Since the manufacturer is contemplating a switch from buying to producing a certain item while setup cost would be the same as ordering cost, the production rate would be about double the usage rate.

Compared to the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ), the maximum inventory would be approximately 30 percent lower under Economic Production Quantity (EPQ), and higher under EOQ.
