Overhead Budget

Johnston Company cleans and applies powder coat paint to metal items on a job-order basis. Johnston has budgeted the following amounts for various overhead categories in the coming year.

Supplies	$223,000
Gas	56,000
Indirect labor	172,000
Supervision	77,500
Depreciation on equipment	46,000
Depreciation on the buliding	48,000
Rental of special equipment	11,000
Electricity (for lighting, heating, and air conditioning)	27,000
Telephone	4,600
Landscaping service	2,000
Other overhead	58,000

In the coming year, Johnston expects to powder coat 170,000 units. Each unit takes 1.3 direct labor hours. Johnston has found that supplies and gas (used to run the drying ovens—all units pass through the drying ovens after powder coat paint is applied) tend to vary with the number of units produced. All other overhead categories are considered to be fixed.
