Question Kramer Company has decided to use a predetermined rate to assign factory
overhead to production. The following predictions have been made for 2011:

Total factory overhead costs $150,000


Direct labor hours 40,000
hours
Direct labor costs $200,000
Machine hours 60,000
hours

Required:

a. Compute the predetermined factory overhead rate under three different


bases: (1) direct labor hours, (2) direct labor costs, and (3) machine
hours.

b. Assume that actual factory overhead was $152,500 and that Kramer
elected to apply factory overhead to Work in Process based on direct
labor hours. If actual direct labor was 42,000 hours for 2011, was
factory overhead overapplied or underapplied? By how much?

c. Kramer Company follows the policy of writing off any under- or


overapplied factory overhead balance to Cost of Goods Sold at the
end of the year. Make the entry necessary at the end of 2011 to
dispose of the factory overhead balance determined in Part (b).

Answer
a. (1) Direct labor hours: ($150,000/40,000 hours) = $3.75
per DLH
(2) Direct labor costs: ($150,000/$200,000) = 75% of

Question King Manufacturing has four categories of overhead. The four categories
and expected overhead costs for each category for next year are as follows:

Maintenance $70,000
Materials handling 30,000
Setups 25,000
Inspection 50,000

Currently, overhead is applied using a predetermined overhead rate based


upon budgeted direct labor hours. 50,000 direct labor hours are budgeted
for next year.

The company has been asked to submit a bid for a proposed job. The plant
manager feels that obtaining this job would result in new business in future
years. Usually, bids are based upon full manufacturing cost plus 30 percent.

Estimates for the proposed job are as follows:

Direct materials $2,500


Direct labor (750 hours) $3,750
Number of machine hours 300
Number of material moves 8
Number of setups 3
Number of inspections 5

In the past, full manufacturing cost has been calculated by allocating


overhead using a volume-based activity driver, direct labor hours. The plant
manager has heard of a new way of applying overhead that uses cost pools
and activity drivers.

Expected activity for the four activity drivers that would be used are:

Machine hours 16,000


Material moves 4,000

Setups 2,000
Quality inspections 8,000

Required:

a. Determine the amount of overhead that would be allocated to the


proposed job if direct labor hours are used as the volume-based activity
driver.

Determine the total cost of the proposed job.

Determine the company's bid if the bid is based upon full manufacturing
cost plus 30 percent.

b. Determine the amount of overhead that would be applied to the


proposed project if activity-based costing is used.

Determine the total cost of the proposed job if activity-based costing is


used.

Determine the company's bid if activity-based costing is used and the


bid is based upon full manufacturing cost plus 30 percent.

c. Which product costing method produces the more competitive bid?

Answer
a. $2,625
($70,000 + $30,000 + $25,000 + $50,000)/50,000 =
$3.50/DLH
$3.50 ´ 750 DLH = $2,625

$8,875 ($2,500 + $3,750 + $2,625)


$11,537.50 ($8,875 ´ 130%)

b. $1,442.75

Maintenance: $70,000/16,000 = $4.375


Material handling: $30,000/4,000 = $7.50
Setups: $25,000/2,000 = $12.50

Question Funk Manufacturing Company produces specially machined parts. The parts
are produced in batches in one continuous manufacturing process. Each
part is custom produced and requires special engineering design activity
(based on customer specifications). Once the design is completed, the
equipment can be set up for batch production. Once the batch is completed,
a sample is taken and inspected to see if the parts are within the tolerances
allowed. Thus, the manufacturing process has four activities: engineering,
setups, machining, and inspecting. In addition, there is a sustaining process
with two activities: providing utilities (plantwide) and providing space. Costs
have been assigned to each activity using direct tracing and resource
drivers:

Engineering $125,000

Question Doyle Manufacturing Company has the following activities: creating bills of
materials (BOM), studying manufacturing capabilities, improving
manufacturing processes, training employees, and designing tooling. The
general ledger accounts reveal the following expenditures for manufacturing
engineering:

Salaries $500,000
Equipment 100,000
Supplies 30,000
Total $630,000

The equipment is used for two activities: improving processes and designing
tooling. Forty percent of the equipment's time is used for improving
processes and 60 percent is used for designing tools. The salaries are for
five engineers, one who earns $160,000 and four who earn $85,000 each.
The $160,000 engineer spends 30 percent of his time training employees in
new processes and 70 percent of his time on improving processes. One
engineer spends 100 percent of her time on designing tooling and another
engineer spends 100 percent of his time on improving processes. The
remaining two engineers spend equal time on all activities. Supplies are
consumed in the following proportions:

Creating BOMs 15%

Question Elbert Manufacturing has recently installed an activity-based relational data


base. Using the information contained in the activity relational table, the
following pool rates were computed:

$400 per purchase order


$24 per machine hour, Process R
$30 per machine hour, Process S
$80 per engineering hour
$4 per packing order
$200 per square foot

Two products are produced by Elbert: Regular and Super. Each product has
an area in the plant that is dedicated to its production. The plant has two
manufacturing processes, the regular process (Process R) and the super
process (Process S). Other processes include engineering, product
handling, and procurement. The product relational table for Elbert is as
follows:

Regular Product:
Activity Driver # and Name Activity
Usage
1 Units 800,000
2 Purchase orders 1,000

Required:

a. Identify two different concatenated keys. What is the purpose of


concatenated keys?
b. Using the pool rates and the information from the product relational
table, calculate the unit overhead cost for each product.
c. Does the product relational table indicate how many activities are in
each pool? Is this necessary for product costing? Explain.

Answer
a. First key: Product Name and Driver Name; Second key: Product
Name and Driver Number. Concatenated keys uniquely identify each
record. This is essential for accessing data and using it for product
costing.

b. Calculation of unit overhead costs:

c. The product relational table does not reveal the activities in each pool.
This information would come from the activity relational table. For
product costing, individual activity information is not needed. Once
pool rates are computed, all that is needed is the activity usage by
each product.

activities. During interviews, the employee survey reports that they spend 15
percent of their time processing credit applications, 55 percent of their time
invoicing customers, and 30 percent of their time on collection activities. The
accounts receivable department employs 10 associates for a total cost of
$200,000. Assume each associate works 8 hours per day, 20 days per
month, but an estimate of practical capacity is 80 percent. After close
observation of the employee’s daily work, managers conclude the following:

Processing a credit 35 minutes


application:
Invoicing a Customer: 10 minutes
Collection activities: 20 minutes

The estimated monthly quantities of work in the three activities are 500
credit applications, 18,000 invoices, and 900 collection calls.

Required:
1. Under a traditional ABC system, what is the cost of one unit of
activity?
2. Assuming the practical capacity information, what is the cost per
minute of supplying capacity?
3. Under time-driven ABC, what are the cost driver rates for each
activity?

Answer 1.
Activity % Time Assigned Activity Cost-Driver
Spent Cost Quantity Rate

Processing 15% $ 30,000 500 $60 per


Credit credit
Application application

Processing 55% $110,000 18,000 $6.11 per


Invoices invoice

Collection 30% $ 60,000 900 $66.66 per


Activities call

Totals 100% $200,000

2. 1 associate * 8 hours per day * 20 days * 60 minutes = 9,600


minutes per associate, per month
At 80 percent capacity, that would be 9,600 * 80% = 7,680 * 10
associates = 76,800 minutes in total. Therefore, the cost per minute
of supplying capacity is $2.60 ($200,000 / 76,800, rounded to the
nearest cent)
3. Cost rates per activity:
Processing Credit Applications: $2.60 per minute * 35 minutes =
$91 per credit application
Processing $2.60 per minute * 10 minutes = $26 per
Invoices: invoice
Collection Activities: $2.60 per minute * 20 minutes = $52 per

Question Compare and contrast perishability and intangibility in an automobile oil


lubrication shop and architectural design firms.
Answer Intangibility refers to the nonphysical nature of services. There can be no
inventory of services. Both lube jobs and architectural designs must be
performed upon the demand of the customer to meet the specifications-of
the car, land, etc. Perishability also means that services cannot be

inventoried because they are consumed when they are performed. The
consumption of service means that customers may need repeated
treatments. Oil lubes are much more perishable than architectural designs.
There is a more frequent need for lube jobs than design jobs.

Question What is the most important factor that causes service firms to generally rank
lower in customer satisfaction than manufacturing firms?
Answer Employees are key to customer services. Service firms have a greater
heterogeneity of labor due to different skills and abilities for interacting with
customers and each other. Employees may not even behave the same
from one day to another, creating inconsistency in the level of service. In
manufacturing, employees are interacting with machinery in more routine
tasks. Performance is more consistent.

✔ 18. Essay: Explain why actual costing Points: 10


systems ar...

Question Explain why actual costing systems are rarely used in practice.
Answer Actual costing systems are rarely used in practice because they do not
provide accurate unit cost information on a timely basis. Actual per-unit
overhead costs can vary dramatically from period to period because (1)
actual costs vary from period to period and/or (2) the number of units
produced may vary from period to period. Thus, when actual costing is
used, a unit produced during a low-volume month may be assigned a
higher cost than a unit produced during a high-volume month, even though
the units are identical.

To avoid fluctuations in per-unit costs using actual overhead costs, it is


necessary to wait until the end of the period and use total actual overhead
costs for the year to calculate per-unit amounts. However, that information
is received too late to be used throughout the year for planning, control,
and decision making. Using a normal costing system and a predetermined
overhead rate avoids the problems associated with an actual cost system.


19. Essay: Why are firms reluctant to use Points: 10

Question Why are firms reluctant to use actual costing? How does normal costing
solve the problems?
Answer Actual costing systems do not provide accurate unit cost information on a
timely basis because manufacturing overhead costs are indirect costs that
may fluctuate dramatically from month to month and may be incurred
independent of nonuniform production levels. Normal costing averages
overhead over the entire year and applies it as production takes place.

✔ 20. Essay: Why are unit costs important? Points: 10


Why do ...

Question Why are unit costs important? Why do full-cost unit costs change from
accounting period to accounting period.
Answer Unit costs are important for valuing inventory, calculating the CGS and net
income, and for making decisions. Full-cost unit costs consist of direct
materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead. If there are changes in
production volume, the fixed manufacturing overhead will be spread over
different numbers of units causing unit costs to change.

Question What are the source documents used in a job-order costing system? How
do the source documents relate to the job cost sheet? How do these
documents inform work in process?
Answer The materials requisition form and job time tickets are the source
documents for materials and labor. The materials requisition form is used to
bring materials needed for production to the production floor for different
jobs. The job time ticket is kept for each laborer. It reports the time spent
working on different jobs. These source documents are used to assign
materials and labor costs to job cost sheets. The job cost sheet collects all
the materials, labor, and overhead applied to each job. The job cards are
read and summarized to create the WIP account.

Question Figure 4-9

Winter Manufacturing has four categories of overhead. The four


categories and expected overhead costs for each category for next
year are listed as follows:

Maintenance $255,000
Materials handling 125,000
Setups 30,000
Inspection 105,000

Currently, overhead is applied using a predetermined overhead


rate based upon budgeted direct labor hours. 100,000 direct labor
hours are budgeted for next year.

The company has been asked to submit a bid for a proposed job.
The plant manager feels that obtaining this job would result in new
business in future years. Usually bids are based upon full
manufacturing cost plus 10 percent.

Estimates for the proposed job are as follows:

Direct materials $15,000


Direct labor (8,000 hours) $12,000
Number of material moves 100
Number of inspections 120
Number of setups 24
Number of machine hours 4,000

Overhead usage is not strictly linked to the units produced because some
products are more complex and diverse than others.
Product diversity may consume overhead activities under differing
consumption ratios.
Overhead costs tend to be underallocated to highly complex products.

Costs expected for these categories for the coming year are as
follows:

Maintenance $50,000
Inspection 75,000

The plant currently applies overhead using direct labor hours and
expected capacity of 50,000 direct labor hours. The following data
have been assembled for use in developing a bid for a proposed
job:

Direct materials $500


Direct labor $2,000
Machine hours 500
Number of inspections 4
Direct labor hours 800

Total expected machine hours for all jobs during the year is
25,000, and the total expected number of inspections is 1,500.

Refer to Figure 4-13. Using direct labor hours to assign overhead,


the total cost of the potential job would be

Inspection 90,000

Currently, overhead is applied using a predetermined overhead


rate based upon budgeted direct labor hours. 20,000 direct labor
hours are budgeted for next year.

The company has been asked to submit a bid for a proposed job.
The plant manager feels that obtaining this job would result in new
business in future years. Usually bids are based upon full
manufacturing cost plus 15 percent. Estimates for the proposed
job are as follows:

Direct materials $3,000


Direct labor (600 hours) $9,000
Number of material moves 4
Number of inspections 6
Number of setups 8
Number of machine hours 80

In the past, full manufacturing cost has been calculated by


allocating overhead using a volume-based activity driver, direct
labor hours. The plant manager has heard of a new way of
applying overhead that uses cost pools and activity drivers.
Expected activity for the four activity drivers that would be used
are:

Machine hours 5,000


Material moves 600
Setups 200
Quality inspections 1,000

Refer to Figure 4-14. If material moves are used to assign material


handling costs, the amount of material handling costs allocated to
the proposed job would be

tools. The salaries are for two engineers. One is paid $50,000,
while the other earns $25,000. The $50,000 engineer spends 40
percent of his time training employees in new processes and 60
percent of his time on improving processes. The remaining
engineer spends equal time on all activities. Supplies are
consumed in the following proportions:

Creating BOMs 25%


Studying capabilities 10%
Improving processes 20%
Training employees 25%
Designing tooling 20%

Question Figure 4-19

Owens Corporation produces specially machined parts. The parts are


produced in batches in one continuous manufacturing process. Each part is
custom produced and requires special engineering design activity (based on
customer specifications). Once the design is completed, the equipment can
be set up for batch production. Once the batch is completed, a sample is
taken and inspected to see if the parts are within the tolerances allowed.
Thus, the manufacturing process has four activities: engineering, setups,
machining, and inspecting. In addition, there is a sustaining process with
two activities: providing utilities (plantwide) and providing space. Costs have
been assigned to each activity using direct tracing and resource drivers:

Engineering $1,000,000
Setups 900,000
Machining 2,000,000
Inspection 800,000
Providing space 250,000
