Problem 8-35A (Part Level Submission)
The Daniels Tool & Die Corporation has been in existence
for a little over three years. The company’s sales have been
increasing each year as it builds a reputation. The company
manufactures dies to its customers’ specifications and therefore
uses a job-order cost system. Factory overhead is applied to the
jobs based on direct labour hours—the absorption-costing (full)
method. Overapplied or underapplied overhead is treated as an
adjustment to Cost of Goods Sold. The company’s income statements
and other data for the last two years are as follows:
Daniels used the same predetermined overhead rate in applying overhead to its production orders in both 2015 and 2016. The rate was based on the following estimates:
In 2015 and 2016, the actual direct labour hours used were 20,300 and 23,100, respectively. Raw materials put into production were $291,900 in 2015 and $370,200 in 2016. The actual fixed overhead was $42,300 for 2015 and $33,980 for 2016, and the planned direct labour rate was the direct labour achieved. For both years, all of the administrative costs were fixed. The variable portion of the selling expenses results from a 5% commission that is paid as a percentage of the sales revenue. |
