Hilton Company manufactures two products: Product A100 and Product X500. The company currently uses a plantwide overhead rate ba

sed on direct labor-hours. The Hilton Company is considering implementing an activity-based costing (ABC) system that allocates its manufacturing overhead to four cost pools. The following additional information is available for Hilton Company as a whole and for Products A100 and X500.
Activity Cost Pool Activity Measure Estimated Overhead Cost Expected Activity
Machining Machine-hours $231,000    11,000 MHs
Machine setups Number of setups $180,000    300 setups
Production design Number of products $94,000    2 products
General factory Direct labor-hours $260,000    13,200 DLHs

Activity Measure Product Y Product Z
Machine-hours 8,000 3,000
Number of setups 60 240
Number of products 1 1
Direct labor-hours 7,000 6,200

Required:
a. What is the company’s plantwide overhead rate?
b. Using the plantwide overhead rate, how much manufacturing overhead cost is allocated to Product Y and Product Z?
c. What is the activity rate for the Machining activity cost pool?
d. What is the activity rate for the Machine Setups activity cost pool?

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:</u>

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

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 765,000 / (7,000 + 6,200)

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $57.95 per direct labor hour

<u>Now, we can allocate overhead to each product:</u>

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Product Y:

Allocated MOH= 57.95*7,000= $405,650

Product Z:

Allocated MOH= 57.95*6,200= $359,390

<u>Finally, the allocation rates based on ABC:</u>

Machining= 231,000 /11,000= $21 per machine hour

Machine setups= 180,000/300= $600 per setup

Production design= 94,000 / 2= $47,000 per product

A company rents a building with a total of 50,000 square feet, which are evenly divided between two floors. The company allocate
shtirl [24]

Answer:

$8,000

Explanation:

The computation of the monthly rental expense allocated is shown below:

Rent allocated to 1st floor:

= $30,000 × 2 ÷ 3

= $20,000

There is 50,000 square feet i.e. equally divided between first floor and second floor. so 25,000 square feet for each floor.

Now  

Rent allocated to 10,000 square feet:

= ($20,000 ÷ 25,000) × 10,000

= $8,000

A firm agreed to pay its workers ​$2525 an hour in 2016 and ​$4141 an hour in 2017. The price level for these years was 241 in 2
NemiM [27]

Answer:

(a) 10.4%; 16.73%

(b) 6.33%

Explanation:

Given that,

Wages paid to the workers in 2016 = $25 per hour

Price level in 2016 = 241

Wages paid to the workers in 2017 = $41 per hour

Price level in 2017 = 245

Real wage rate in 2016:

= (Nominal wages ÷ Price level) × 100

= ($25 ÷ 241) × 100

= 0.104 × 100

= 10.4%

Real wage rate in 2017:

= (Nominal wages ÷ Price level) × 100

= ($41 ÷ 245) × 100

= 0.1673 × 100

= 16.73%

Therefore, the real wage increase received by these workers in​ 2017 is calculated as follows:

= Real wage rate in 2017 - Real wage rate in 2016

= 16.73% -  10.4%

= 6.33%

Hence, these workers do get a raise between the two years.
