Moody Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. At the beginning of the year, the company made the following estimates:

Machine-hours required to support estimated production 159,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead cost $652,000
Variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour $4.60

Required:
a. Compute the plantwide predetermined overhead rate.
b. During the year, Job 400 was started and completed. The following information was available with respect to this job:

Direct materials $370
Direct labor cost $230
Machine-hours used 34

c. Compute the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job 400.
d. If Job 400 includes 60 units, what is the unit product cost for this job

Relax

Respuesta :

a.  The plantwide predetermined overhead rate is $8.7 per machine hour.

b. The Overhead applied is 296.

c.  The total manufacturing cost assigned to Job 400 is $896.

d.  The unit product cost for this job is $14.93.

Predetermined overhead rate

a. Predetermined overhead rate

Predetermined overhead rate = Variable overhead cost per machine hour + Fixed manufacturing overhead cost/Estimated machine hours

Predetermined overhead rate= 4.60 + 652,000/159,000

Predetermined overhead rate= 4.60 + 4.10

Predetermined overhead rate= $8.7 per machine hour

b. Overhead applied

Overhead applied = Actual machine hours used x  Predetermined overhead rate

Overhead applied = 34x 8.7

Overhead applied= $295.8

Overhead applied= $296 (rounded to nearest whole dollar)

c.  Total manufacturing cost assigned to Job 400.

Job cost sheet

Direct material $370

Direct labor $230

Overhead applied $296

Total manufacturing cost $896

d. Unit product cost = Total manufacturing cost/Number of units

Unit product cost = 896/60

Unit product cost = $14.93

Inconclusion the plantwide predetermined overhead rate is $8.7 per machine hour and the Overhead applied is 296.
