Wilmington Company has two manufacturing departments--Assembly and Fabrication

Management Jun 22, 2021

Wilmington Company has two manufacturing departments--Assembly and Fabrication. It considers all of its manufacturing overhead costs to be fixed costs. The first set of data that is shown below is based on estimates from the beginning of the year. The second set of data relates to one particular job completed during the year--Job Bravo.

 

Estimated Data Assembly Fabrication Total

Manufacturing overhead costs $6,210,000 $6,750,000 $12,960,000

Direct labor-hours  135,000  81,000  216,000

Machine-hours  54,000  270,000  324,000

 

Job Bravo Assembly Fabrication Total

Direct labor-hours 28 20 48

Machine-hours 20 23 43

 

Required:

1. If Wilmington used a plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours, how much manufacturing overhead would be applied to Job Bravo?

2. If Wilmington uses departmental predetermined overhead rates with direct labor-hours as the allocation base in Assembly and machine-hours as the allocation base in Fabrication, how much manufacturing overhead would be applied to Job Bravo?

(Round your intermediate calculation to 2 decimal places.)

 

 

1 - Plantwide Manufacturing Overhead applied to JOb bravo

2 - Manufacturing overhead applied from assembly to job bravo

3 - manufacturing overhead applied from fabrication to job bravo

4 - total departmental manufacturing overhead applied to job bravo

Expert Solution

1) Computation of   Plantwide Manufacturing Overhead applied to JOb bravo:
Estimated Manufacturing Overhead  (a) 12960000  
Estimated Total Direct Labor Hours (b)  2,16,000 DLHs
Predetermined Overhead Rate (a/b) 60.00 per DLH
Direct labor-hours worked on Bravo (a) 28  
Predetermined overhead rate (b) 60 per DLH
Overhead applied to Bravo (a*b) 1680  

 

2) Computation of Manufacturing overhead applied from assembly to job bravo:
     
Estimated manufacturing overhead (a) 6210000  
Estimated total direct labor-hours (b) 1,35,000 DLHs
Predetermined overhead rate (a/b) 46 per DLH
3) Computation of Manufacturing overhead applied from fabrication to job bravo:
     
Estimated manufacturing overhead (a) 6750000  
Estimated total machine-hours (b) 2,70,000 MHs
Predetermined overhead rate (a/b) 25.00 per MH

 

4) Computation of Total departmental manufacturing overhead applied to job bravo:  
       
  Assembly Fabrication Total
Quantity of allocation base used (a) 28 23  
Predetermined overhead rate (b) 46 25  
Overhead applied to Bravo (a*b) 1288 575 1863
