Solutions

Expert Solution

i) Calculation of predetermined overhead rates for the departments.rn
Predetermined overhead rate - Department Arn
= $200,000 / 20,000 machine hoursrn
= $10 per machine hourrn
Predetermined overhead rate - Department Brn
= $400,000 / 40,000 direct labor hoursrn
= $10 per direct labor hourrn

Explanationrn
Formula for calculating predetermined overhead ratern
= Estimated total overhead costs / Estimated activity in allocation basern

ii) Calculation of underapplied or overapplied overhead costs for the departments.rn
Department A:rn
Actual overhead cost = $218,000rn
Budgeted overhead cost = $10*22,000 machine hours = $220,000rn
Underapplied overhead costrn
= $220,000 - $218,000rn
= $2,000rn
Department B:rn
Actual overhead cost = $353,000rn

Overapplied overhead costrn
= $353,000 - $350,000rn
= $3,000rn
Explanationrn
Formula for underapplied overhead cost = Budgeted overhead - Actual Overheadrn
Formula for overapplied cost = Actual overhead - Budgeted Overhead


i. Predetermined overhead rate = $10 per direct labor hourrn
