Answer:

(i) 900 CDs

(ii) Greater than; $1,650

Explanation:

(1) Break-event point will be when the contribution margin from total sales is equal to fixed costs,

Contribution Margin = Selling price - variable cost

                                  = $(21.5 - 9.5)

                                  = $12

Contribution Margin *Number of CDs sold = $10,800

Break-even point for Studio A = 10,800 ÷ 12

                                                    = 900 CDs

(2) Studio A would be more profitable when the extra profit earned from per unit sale of CD exceeds the extra fixed cost given in Studio A.

Extra Contribution margin in Studio A = $(12-10)

                                                               = $2

Extra Fixed cost in Studio A = $(10,800 - 7,500)

                                               = $3,300

Studio A should be chosen if sales is greater than (3300/2) = $1,650.

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

$60,000= total estimated overhead costs

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The predetermined overhead rate for manufacturing overhead for 2018 is $4.00 per direct labor hour.

Direct labor hour= $5.00 per hour

<u>Direct labor hours= (100,000*0.75)/5= 15,000 hours</u>

To calculate the estimated overhead costs, we need to use the following formula:

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

4= total estimated overhead costs for the period/15,000

$60,000= total estimated overhead costs for the period

Papessa [141]

The Cost of Goods Manufactured is $104,100.By adding the direct material cost with the direct labor cost ,factory overhead,beginning work in progress and deducting the value obtained from the ending work in process value we get the The Cost of Goods Manufactured

<u></u>

Explanation:

The information Given in the question is  

Beginning finished goods inventory

$ 12,300

Direct labor

32,100

Beginning work in process inventory

8,700

General and administrative expenses

Ending work in process inventory

10,500

Indirect labor

7,800

Ending finished goods inventory

11,000

Indirect materials

15,000

Depreciation - factory equipment

9,000

So the formula for the

<u>Cost of Goods Manufactured = Direct Materials + Direct Labor + Factory Overhead + Beginning Work in Process - Ending Work in Process </u>

<u>Cost of Goods Manufactured</u> = $42,000 + $32,100 (Indirect Labor + Indirect Materials + Depreciation Factory Equipment) + $8,700 − $10,500

Cost of Goods Manufactured = $42,000 + $32,100 + $7,800 + $15,000 + $9,000 + $8,700 − $10,500 = $104,100.

So,the Cost of Goods Manufactured = $104,100.
