Bluefield Corp. has two product lines, A and B. Bluefield has identified the following information about its overhead and potent

Triss [41]

Answer:

Overhead assigned to product labour hours

Product A = $36.5 per hour × 76%× 1900= 52,706.0

Product B = $36.5 per hour × 24%× 1900= 16,644.0

Overhead assigned to product using machine hours

Product A = $1.54 × 17,700= $27,258

Product B = $1.54 × 27,300 =$42,042

Explanation:

Under the traditional absorption costing system, overhead is assigned to units produced using the direct labour hours or machine hours basis.

Overhead absorption rate = Budgeted overhead for the period/Budgeted labour hours

OAR = $69,300 /1,900 hours

= $36.5 per hour

Overhead assigned to product

Product A = $36.5 per hour × 76%× 1900= 52,706.0

Product B = $36.5 per hour × 24%× 1900= 16,644.0

Overhead absorption rate = Budgeted overhead for the period/Budgeted machine hours

OAR = $69,300 /45,000 hours= $1.54 per hour

Overhead assigned to product

Product A = $1.54 × 17,700= $27,258

Product B = $1.54 × 27,300 =$42,042

Maria can purchase shirts for $21.00 each. She considers the benefit of one shirt to be $40.00, but with each additional shir

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

4 shirts

Explanation:

Principle of Optimization at the Margin states that the individual maximises utility when consuming a prpduct as long as the marginal benefit exceeds to marginal cost. If marginal cost is greater than the benefit the consumer will find another alternative.

In this instance Maria sees the short as value of $40, while sale price is $21

So when she buys the first shirt her perceived cost is now 40- 5= $35

For the second shirt perceived cost is 35-5= $30

For the third shirt perceived cost is 30-5= 25$

For the fourth shirt it is 25-5= $20

At this stage cost is slightly higher than the benefit and she will stop buying shirts.

Anika [276]

Answer:

1 $126

2 $140

3 90%

Explanation:

1. Overhead applied = Closing balance of job - (opening balance of job + prime cost added to the job during the month

= $1,921 - ($1,235 + $560)

= $1,921 - $1,795

= $126

2. Direct labor for job 46 for July.

Direct labor = prime cost / ( 3 parts of direct materials + 1 part of direct labor)

Direct labor = $560 / 4

Direct labor = $140

Therefore, direct labor for job 46 for July is $140

Direct materials for job 46 for July

= Direct labor cost × 3(This is due to the fact that prime cost includes 3 parts of direct materials

= $140 × 3

= $420

3. Overhead rate for the company

= [($126 / $140) × 100

= 90%
