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	$212,000
Gas	53,000
Indirect labor	174,000
Supervision	75,000
Depreciation on equipment	48,000
Depreciation on the buliding	45,000
Rental of special equipment	10,000
Electricity (for lighting, heating, and air conditioning)	27,500
Telephone	5,000
Landscaping service	1,600
Other overhead	56,000

In the coming year, Johnston expects to powder coat 200,000 units. Each unit takes 1.4 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.

Required:

1. Calculate the number of direct labor hours Johnston must budget for the coming year. Calculate the variable overhead rate. Calculate the total fixed overhead for the coming year. When required, round your answers to the nearest cent and use the rounded answers in subsequent requirements.

Solutions

Expert Solution

1)Direct labor hours = 1.4*200,000= 280,000 DLH

2)Total variable overhead = supplies + gas

= 212,000+53,000

= 265,000

variable overhead rate= Total variable overhead rate /Direct labor hours

= 265,000/280,000

= $ 0.95 per DLH

Fixed overhead = 174,000+75,000+48,000+45,000+10,000+27,500+5,000+1,600+56,000

= 442,100

Budgeted direct labor hours	280,000
variable overhead rate	0.95
Budgeted variable overhead [280,000*0.95]	266,000
Budgeted fixed overhead	442,100
Total budgeted overhead	708,100

Fixed overhead rate = 442,100/280,000= $ 1.58 per DLH

Total overhead rate= 708,100/280,000= $ 2.53 per DLH

3)New budgeted Direct labor hours = new units *hours per unit

= 198,000*1.4

= 277,200 DLH

I HOPE IT USEFUL TO YOU IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT PLZ COMMENT GIVE ME UP-THUMB. THANKS.......
