Answer: The correct answer is "B. This is a false statement.".

Explanation: If they are companies that compete with each other, depending on the behavior of each one, it will be determined whether or not they are forced to lower prices. But if it is a cartel which colludes for the benefit of all, surely companies would choose to keep prices at the same level since, having a lower cost, would imply a greater benefit.

Schwering Corporation uses activity-based costing to assign overhead costs to products. Overhead costs have already been allocat
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

<u>1)</u>

Order Filling, $136,040

Orders (Order Filling)

Product D7 3,040

Product U1 760

<u>To calculate the predetermined overhead rate, we need to use the following formula:</u>

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

Order Filling= 136,040/3,800

Order Filling= $35.8 per order

<u>2)</u>

Overhead costs:

Machining, $81,600

Order Filling, $161,500

Activity data appear below:

MHs (Machining) Orders (Order Filling)

Product D7 13,200 4,000

Product U1 26,800 1,000

<u>First, we need to calculate the activity rate for each activity:</u>

Machining= 81,600/40,000= $2.04 per machine hour

Order Filling= 161,500/5,000= $32.3 per order

<u>Now, we can allocate overhead to product U1:</u>

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

Product U1= 2.04*26,800 + 32.3*1,000= $86,972

<u>3)</u>

Wall Mirrors Specialty Windows

Total expected units produced 7,700 1,450

Expected direct labor-hours per unit 14 7

The total materials handling cost for the year is expected to be $17,153.10.

<u>Total direct labor hours, and predetermined overhead rate:</u>

Total direct labor hours= 14*7,700 + 7*1,450= 117,950

Material Handling activity rate= 17,153.1/117,950= $0.145 per direct labor hour

<u>Now, we allocate overhead:</u>

Wall Mirrors= 0.15*107,800= $16,170
