Samson Company reported total manufacturing costs of $320,000, manufacturing overhead totaling $52,000, and direct materials use

Artemon [7]

Answer:

$204,000

Explanation:

Given that

Total manufacturing costs = $320,000

Manufacturing overhead = $52,000

Direct materials = $64,000

The computation of direct labor cost is shown below:-

Direct labor cost = Total manufacturing costs + Manufacturing overhead + direct materials

= $320,000 - $52,000 - $64,000

= $204,000

Therefore for computing the direct labor cost we simply applied the above formula.

Product B has revenue of $39,500, variable cost of goods sold of $25,500, variable selling expenses of $16,500, and fixed costs

Kay [80]

Answer:

We should discontinue Product B

Explanation:

We should check if Product B generates a contribution or not:

We subtract from the sales revenues the variable cost:

revenue 39,500

variable cost of goods sold (25,500)

variable selling expenses (16,500)

Contribution (2,500)

As the contribution is negative, we should discontinue Product B as is less expensevely to stop production than continue.

Helio Company has two products: A and B. The annual production and sales of Product A is 1,850 units and of Product B is 1,250 u

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $77 per direct labor hour

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production:

Product A: 1,850 units

Product B: 1,250

Hours required:

Product A: requires 0.3 direct labor-hours per unit

Product B: requires 0.6 direct labor-hours per unit.

The total estimated overhead for the next period is $100,485.

First, we need to calculate the total amount of direct labor hours required:

Total direct labor hours= 0.3*1,850 + 0.6*1,250= 1,305 hour

To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

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

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 100,485/1,305= $77 per direct labor hour

Poskey Corporation uses an activity-based costing system with three activity cost pools. The company has provided the following

MrRa [10]

Answer:

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}&Cost&Assembly&Setting Up&Other&Total\\wages&349,000&226,850&69,800&52,350&349,000\\Depreciation&290,000&101,500&58,000&130,500&290,000&Utilities&199,000&29,850&149,250&19,900&199,000&Total&838,000&358,200&277,050&202,750&838,000&\end{array}\right]$

Explanation:

We mulitply each line by the stated percent of each activity

for example

Setting Up % x Utilities= Utilities cost assigned to setting up

199,000x 75% = 149,250

Assembly % Depreciation= Depreciation cost assigned to assembly

35% x 290,000 = 101,500

This process must be done to assign each portion of cost.

Starling Co. manufactures one product with a selling price of $18 and variable cost of $12. Starling’s total annual fixed costs

nikitadnepr [17]

The number of units that Starling Co. sold was 11200

Explanation:

Given -

Operating income = $28,800

Fixed cost = $38,400

Selling price of one unit = $12

Variable cost = $12

Number of units sold, n = ?

Contribution margin per unit = $18 - $12

= $6

$n = \frac{operating income + fixed cost}{contribution margin per unit}$

$n = \frac{28800 + 38400}{6} \\\\n = \frac{67200}{6} \\\\n = 11200$

Therefore, number of units that Starling Co. sold was 11200
