Accounting Aug 08, 2020

Sunland's Bakery makes a variety of home-style cookies for upscale restaurants in the Atlanta metropolitan area. The company's best-selling cookie is the double chocolate almond supreme. Sunland's recipe requires 10 ounces of a commercial cookie mix, 5 ounces of milk chocolate, and 1 ounce of almonds per pound of cookies. The standard direct materials costs are $0.80 per pound of cookie mix, $7 per pound of milk chocolate, and $15 per pound of almonds. Each pound of cookies requires 1 minute of direct labor in the mixing department and 8 minutes of direct labor in the baking department. The standard labor rates in those departments are $13.20 per direct labor hour (DLH) and $26 per DLH, respectively. Variable overhead is applied at a rate of $37.70 per DLH; fixed overhead is applied at a rate of $60 per DLH.
