Answer:
A. Vogue $125,800
Beauty $199,800
Glamour $340,400
B. Vogue $144,000
Beauty $246,000
Glamour $276,000
Explanation:
A. Computation for the allocation rate and the budgeted overhead cost for each product Using direct labor hours as the cost driver
First step is to calculate the Product Allocation rate
Product Allocation rate =$666,000/18,000
Product Allocation rate=$37.00
Now let calculate the allocation rate and the budgeted overhead cost for each product
Using this formula
Allocated Cost=Product Allocation rate * Weight of Base
Let plug in the formula
Vogue= $37.00 * 3400
Vogue = $125,800
Beauty= $37.00 * 5400
Beauty= $199,800
Glamour=$37.00 * 9200
Glamour = $340,400
Total $666,000.00
($125,800+$199,800+$340,400)
Therefore the allocation rate and the budgeted overhead cost for each product Using direct labor hours as the cost driver will be :
Vogue $125,800
Beauty $199,800
Glamour $340,400
B. Computation for the allocation rate and the budgeted overhead cost for each product Using
Use machine hours as the cost driver
First step is to calculate the Product Allocation rate
Product Allocation rate =$666,000/5,550
Product Allocation rate=$120.00
Now let calculate the allocation rate and the budgeted overhead cost for each product
Using this formula
Allocated Cost=Product Allocation rate * Weight of Base
Vogue=$120.00 * 1200
Vogue = $144,000
Beauty= $120.00 * 2050
Beauty = $246,000
Glamour= $120.00 * 2300
Glamour = $276,000
Total $666,000
($144,000+$246,000+$276,000)
Therefore the allocation rate and the budgeted overhead cost for each product Using
Use machine hours as the cost driver will be:
Vogue $144,000
Beauty $246,000
Glamour $276,000
