Kearney, Inc., makes kitchen tools. Company management believes that a new model of coffee grinder would sell well at a price of

$66. The company estimates unit materials costs to be $16 for the model, and overhead costs would average $18 per unit. The local wage rate for direct labor is $28 per hour. Kearney has a goal of earning an operating profit of 20 percent of manufacturing costs for each of its products.
What direct labor-hour input could Kearney allow to still achieve its profit goal?

Answer:

$0.15 hours per unit

Explanation:

Given that

Direct material cost = $16

Assume Direct labor cost = X

Manufacturing overheads = $18

Profit margin = 20%

Direct labor per hour cost = $28

The computation of direct labor-hour input is shown below:-

Total manufacturing cost = X + $34

Total cost of goods sold = (X + $34) × 1.7 = $66

Direct labor cost per unit

= (X + $34) = $38.82

= $38.82 - $34

= $4.32

Direct labor hours per unit = Direct labor cost per unit ÷ Direct labor per hour cost

= $4.32 ÷ $28

= $0.15 hours per unit

Purchases                      133,000

Ending Raw materials       (10,100)

Used into production      130,900

Beginning WIP     5,400

cost added   416,900

Sales             652,000

COGM          (464,400)  - (446,400 + 18,000)

Gross Profit   187, 600‬

S&A               (145,000)

Net income     42,600

Explanation:

We work the following reasoning:

the beginning inventory are the materials at hand at the beginning then we add up the purchases and compare with ending ivnentory. The difference was used into production.

Same thinking applpies to how to calculate for cost of goods manufactured and cost of goods sold.

side calculation:

cost added during the period:

mateirals used + direct labor + applied overhead

Overhead:

actual   223,000

applies 205,000

as the cost were higher we will adjust to increase overhead by 18,000 It was underapplied

This will increase the COGS in the income statement.

<u>Net income: </u>

we will calculate the net income by subtracting the COGS and the expenses from the sales revenues.
