Digger Inc. sells a high-speed retrieval system for mining information. It provides the following information for the year.

kozerog [31]

Answer:

Predetermined overhead rate=$19.5/machine hour

The company applied $877500 to the units produced.

Explanation:

a) Pre-determined overhead rate= Budgeted overhead manufacturing cost

Estimated number of machine hours

=975000/50000=$19.5/machine hour.

b)Applied overhead = Pre-determined overhead rate * Actual machine hours

= 19.5 * 45000

=$877500.

In traditional costing we use as base for calculating overhead rate is machine hours or labor hours but in activity based costing we identify activity that consume resources,identify cost driver of each activity,compute cost rate per cost driver unit and finally assign cost to products by multiplying cost driver rate.

Predetermined overhead rate= estimated overhead/Estimated base (cost driver).

The Cutting Department of Sheridan Company has the following production and cost data for July.

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

1. Materials Conversion Costs

Total equivalent units of production 17,200 15,800

2. Cost per Equivalent Unit $ 4.05 $ 2.6

Explanation:

Cutting Department

Weighted-Average Method

1. Equivalent Units

Particulars Units % of Completion Equivalent Units

Materials Conversion Materials Conversion

Transferred Out 13,700 100 100 13,700 13,700

Ending Inventory 3500 100 60 3500 2100

Total Equivalent Units 17,200 15,800

The Ending Inventory units are 3500 which are not yet complete.

Materials Conversion Costs

Total equivalent units of production 17,200 15,800

2. Cost Per Equivalent Units

Materials Conversion

Cost Added 69,660 18,480 + 22,600

Total Costs 69,660 41,080

Equivalent Units 17,200 15,800

Cost per Equivalent Unit 69,660 / 17,200 41,080/ 15,800

$ 4.05 $ 2.6

Cost of Ending Work In Process $ 19635

Materials = 3500 * $ 4.05= $ 14175

Conversion = 2100 * $ 2.6= $ 5460

We multiply the equivalent number of units with the cost per unit to find the cost.

Cost Of Units Transferred Out = $ 91,105

Materials = 13,700 * $ 4.05= $ 55,485

Conversion = 13,700 * $ 2.6 = $ 35620

B. A Cost Reconciliation Report

Materials Conversion

Ending WIP $ 14175 $ 5460

Transferred Out $ 55,485 $ 35620

Total $ 69660 41080

These calculated costs reconcile with the costs given in the above data.

Materials Conversion

Cost Added 69,660 18,480 + 22,600

Total Costs 69,660 41,080

These costs reconcile with the given costs.

A Japanese worker can produce 6 units of steel or 3 televisions per hour. A Korean worker can produce 8 units of steel or 2 tele

kifflom [539]

Answer:

2 and 4

Explanation:

Japanese worker can produce 6 units of steel or 3 televisions per hour.

Korean worker can produce 8 units of steel or 2 televisions per hour.

Opportunity cost is the cost of the lost alternative. So when the country decides to produce only televisions it has to give up on steel production. Thus, the units of steel forgone for each unit of television gained is an opportunity cost of a television.

$Opportunity cost = \frac{Units of Steel lost}{Units of Television gained}$

Thus,

Opportunity cost of television for Japan = $\frac{6}{3} = 2$

Opportunity cost of television for Korea = $\frac{8}{2} = 4$
