Lunchco Inc. produces picnic tables in a two-step process. Pretreated wood is cut in the Cutting Department and then the lumber
babunello [35]

Answer: company’s direct labor budget = $320000

Explanation:

Given that,

Standard hourly labor rate in the Cutting Department = $12

It takes 30 minutes of direct labor time to cut the lumber

Tables take one hour to assemble

Standard hourly rate in the Assembly Department = $10

Lunchco’s production budget = 20,000

Cutting Department =  production budget × direct labor time × Standard hourly labor rate

= 20000 × 0.5 hours/unit × $12/unit

= $120000

Assembly Department = production budget × Tables take one hour to assemble  × Standard hourly labor rate

= 20000 × 1 hour/unit × $10/unit

= $200000

Therefore,

company’s direct labor budget = Assembly Department + Cutting Department

= 200000 + 120000

= $320000
