Answer:

Yes, you should invest in the coffee roaster.

Explanation:

Although the coffee purchase price per pound will remain the same, but the fact the aroma of roasting coffee will improve the ambience of your cafe and is apt to attract more customers implies that unit of sales or rate of sales turnover will rise.

As the units of sales increase, each additional unit sold will add to profit, given that the coffee purchase price per pound remains the same, and this will lead to an increase in total profit which is the major aim of being in business.

Morris Company applies overhead based on direct labor costs. For the current year, Morris Company estimated total overhead costs
alekssr [168]

Answer:

As overhead was underapplied, the balance in overhead will be $33,000 credit.

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:</u>

<u></u>

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

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 452,000 / 2,260,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $0.2 per direct labor dollar

<u>Now, we can allocate costs:</u>

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

Allocated MOH= 0.2*1,930,000

Allocated MOH= $386,000

<u>Finally, we determine the over/under allocation:</u>

Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead

Under/over applied overhead=  419,000 - 386,000

Underapplied overhead= $33,000

As overhead was underapplied, the balance in overhead will be $33,000 credit.
