When all of a companys job cost sheets are viewed collectively they form what is known as a?

administrative cost advertising cost also known as period cost.

The direct materials required to manufacture each unit of product are listed on a ________.

In the cost formula (Y = a + bX) that is used to estimate the total manufacturing overhead cost for a given period, the letter “a” refers to the estimated ________.

total fixed manufacturing overhead cost

predetermined overhead rate =

Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost / estimated total amount of the allocation base.

Predetermined overhead rates

- Depreciation - Utilities - Indirect labor. - Indirect materials.

-Direct labor - hours - Direct labor cost - machine hours - Units of product. - manufacturing overhead cost.

Predetermined overhead rates 4 steps :

Step 1: Estimate the total amount of the allocation base (the denominator) Step 2: Estimate the total fixed manufacturing overhead cost for the coming period and the variable manufacturing overhead cost per unit of the allocation base. Step 3: Use the cost formula (Y = a + bX) to estimate the total manufacturing overhead cost for the coming period. (the numerator) Step 4: Compute the predetermined overhead rate by diving the numerator by the monitor.

Y = estimated total manufacturing overhead cost. a = estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead cost. b = estimated Variable manufacturing overhead cost per unit of allocation base. X= Estimated Total amount of allocation base.

The management of Blue Ocean Company estimates that 50,000 machine-hours will be required to support the production planned for the year. It also estimates $300,000 of total fixed manufacturing overhead cost for the coming year and $4 of variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour. What is the predetermined overhead rate?

$10.00 per machine hour. (Y = a + bX) a= $300,000 b= $4 X = 50,000 Y= 300,000 + 4(50,000) = 500,000 Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost / estimated total amount of the allocation base. 500,000 / 50,000 = 10

Spartan Corporation estimates that it will incur $200,000 of total manufacturing overhead cost at an estimated activity level of 10,000 direct labor-hours. What is the amount of manufacturing overhead that would be applied to a job that required 200 direct labor-hours?

$4,000 Predetermined overhead rate = $200,000 ÷ 10,000 DLHs = $20 per DLH For 200 DLHs, the manufacturing overhead that would be applied is = $20 per DLH × 200 DLHs = $4,000

Wilson Products uses a plantwide predetermined overhead rate of $10 per direct labor-hour. Direct material and direct labor associated with Job X23 are $4,000 and $1,200 respectively. If Job X23 used 100 direct labor-hours, what is the total cost assigned to this job?

$6,200 Total cost associated with the job = Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead applied Total cost associated with the job = $4,000 + $1,200 + ($10 × 100 DLHs) = $6,200

Wilson Products uses a plantwide predetermined overhead rate of $10 per direct labor-hour. Direct material and direct labor associated with Job X23 are $4,000 and $1,200 respectively. If Job X23 used 100 direct labor-hours to produce 50 audio controllers, what is this job’s unit product cost (per audio controller)?

$124 total cost assigned / units = unit product cost (per audio controller). 6,200 / 50 = 124

multiple predetermined overhead rates

What is the estimated total manufacturing overhead in the Assembly Department? Assembly Packaging Direct labor-hours 5,200 62,000 Machine-hours 68,400 11,900 Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 390,000 $ 419,000 Variable manufacturing overhead per DLH $ 3.75 Variable manufacturing overhead per MH $ 3.00

$595,200 Estimated total manufacturing overhead = $390,000 + ($3.00 per DLH × 68,400 MHs) = $595,200

What is the predetermined overhead rate for the Packing Department? Assembly Packaging Direct labor-hours 5,200 62,000 Machine-hours 68,400 11,900 Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 390,000 $ 419,000 Variable manufacturing overhead per DLH $ 3.75 Variable manufacturing overhead per MH $ 3.00

$10.51 per DLH Predetermined overhead rate = $651,500 ÷ 62,000 DLHs = $10.51 per DLH

What is the term used when a company applies less overhead to production than it actually incurs?

The adjustment for overapplied overhead ________.

decreases cost of goods sold and increases net operating income.

When all of a company’s job cost sheets are viewed collectively they form what is known as a ________.

Underapplied or overapplied overhead is the:

difference between overhead applied to work in process and actual overhead.

The adjustment for underapplied overhead :

- fixed manufacturing - variable manufacturing

Companies that make many different products each period use ____ - _____ costing.

True or false: Job-order costing can only be used in manfucaturing firms.

A measure such as direct labor-hours or machine hours used to assign overhead costs to products and services is called a cost driver or a(n) _______ ________.

Which of the following would not be a good allocation base for manufacturing overhead? - Direct labor hours -Machine hours - Units of product - Accounting hours

To calculate a predetermined overhead rate, divide estimated manufacturing overhead by:

estimated allocation base.

The predetermined overhead rate is calculated:

before the period begins.

Overhead application is the process of:

assigning manufacturing overhead to jobs.

In the formula y=a+bX, b represents the estimated:

variable manufacturing overhead cost per unit.

The formula for applying overhead to a specific job is:

Predetermined overhead rate x Amount of allocation base incurred by job.

900. 

450,000 / 150,000 = $3.00 per direct labor hour x 300 = $900.

True or false: One reason to use a predetermined overhead rate is to eliminate the effect of seasonal factors.

The total cost of a job is calculated by adding the total of direct labor cost, direct materials cost and 

applied manufacturing overhead cost.

The process used to assign overhead costs to products is called overhead ______. 

application (overhead allocation)

The predetermiend overhead rate is multipled by the actual allocation base incurred by a job to find : 

overhead applied to the job. 

$4000

Explanation: 

The predetermined overhead rate = $100,000/5,000 direct labor hours = $20 per direct labor hour. The overhead applied to the job = $20 per direct labor hours x 200 direct labor hours = $4000

Estimated manufacturing overhead = 450,000

Estimated direct labor hours = 150,000

Actual manufacturing overhead = $405,000

Actual direct labor hours = 180,000

Based on this information, the amount of overhead allocated to a job that used 300 direct labor hours is $______. 

$450,000 / 150,000 = $3.00 per direct labor hour x 300 = $900.
