Walton Corporation estimated its overhead costs would be $22,700 per month except for January when it pays the $138,000 annual insurance premium on the manufacturing facility. Accordingly, the January overhead costs were expected to be $160,700 ($138,000 + $22,700). The company expected to use 7,100 direct labor hours per month except during July, August, and September when the company expected 9,100 hours of direct labor each month to build inventories for high demand that normally occurs during the Christmas season. The company’s actual direct labor hours were the same as the estimated hours. The company made 3,550 units of product in each month except July, August, and September, in which it produced 4,550 units each month. Direct labor costs were $23.90 per unit, and direct materials costs were $10.70 per unit.

a. Calculate a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor hours.

b.Determine the total allocated overhead cost for January, March, and August.

c.Determine the cost per unit of product for January, March, and August.

d.Determine the selling price for the product, assuming that the company desires to earn a gross margin of $21.60 per unit.

Custom Automobile Restoration Shop (CARS) is a small shop dedicated to high-quality restorations of vintage cars....

Custom Automobile Restoration Shop (CARS) is a small shop dedicated to high-quality restorations of vintage cars. Although it will restore an automobile that a customer already owns, usually the shop buys an old vehicle, restores it, and then sells it in a private party sale or at a classic-car auction. The shop has been in existence for 10 years, but for the sake of simplicity, assume it has no beginning inventories for 2017. Five automobile restoration projects were worked on during 2017. By the end of the year, four of these projects were complete and three of them had been sold.

The following selected data are from CARS' 2017 budget:

Advertising $ 11,630
Direct materials 211,500
Direct labor 190,400
Rent on office space 10,700
Rent on factory space 32,100
Indirect materials 16,100
Maintenance costs for factory equipment 5,400
Utilities costs for office space 2,000
Utilities costs for factory space 4,200
Depreciation on factory equipment 12,600
Machine hours expected to be worked 4,200
Direct labor hours expected to be worked 6,800

The following information relates to production events during 2017:

  • Raw materials were purchased for $217,100.
  • Materials used in production totaled $209,600; $15,900 of these were considered indirect materials costs. The remaining $193,700 of direct materials costs related to individual restoration jobs as follows:
    Job Number Direct Materials Cost
    701 $ 44,300
    702 36,300
    703 43,000
    704 40,600
    705 29,500
  • Labor costs incurred for production totaled $184,900. The workers are highly skilled craftsmen who require little supervision. Therefore, all of these costs were considered direct labor costs and related to individual restoration jobs as follows:
    Job Number Direct Labor Cost
    701 $ 41,000
    702 43,000
    703 49,500
    704 31,000
    705 20,400
  • Paid factory rent of $30,300.
  • Recorded depreciation on factory equipment of $13,100.
  • Made $5,800 of payments to outside vendors for maintenance of factory equipment.
  • Paid factory utilities costs of $4,300.
  • Applied manufacturing overhead using a predetermined rate of $18.00 per machine hour. The 3,790 machine hours that were used relate to each job as follows:
    Machine
    Job Number Hours Worked
    701 780
    702 850
    703 920
    704 890
    705 350
  • Completed all restoration jobs except Job 705 and transferred those projects to finished goods.
  • Sold three jobs for the following amounts:
    Job Number Sales Price
    701 $ 127,000
    702 119,200
    703 111,700
  • Closed the Manufacturing Overhead account to transfer any overapplied or underapplied overhead to the Cost of Goods Sold account.

Required

  1. Assume CARS had used direct labor hours (versus machine hours) as its cost driver. Compute its predetermined overhead rate. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

CASE: BIRD'S EYE VIEW LTD. Macarthur Graham was a retired military pilot who had established Bird’sEyeViewLtd.,...

CASE:

BIRD'S EYE VIEW LTD.

Macarthur Graham was a retired military pilot who had established Bird’sEyeViewLtd., an aerial touring company that flew over the Niagara Escarpment. Graham had just completed his ninth fiscal year of operations (ending August 31, 2012), and needed to account for all the long-lived asset transactions that had occurred during the past fiscalyear.

HOT AIR BALLOON

For the past eight years, Graham had offered tours from his hot air balloon, which he had purchased for $120,000 when he opened his business. There was now $68,344 of accumulated depreciation. The hot air balloon had an estimated useful life of 10 years and a residual value of $15,000, and it was depreciated using the declining-balance method.

Graham had enjoyed the balloon rides as part of his retirement activities, but he had also been working on obtaining a helicopter pilot’s licence. He had noticed that helicopter rides, in general, were more popular, and he thought the heated cabin in the helicopter would contribute to more stable sales year-round. For this reason, on February 2, 2012, he traded in his hot air balloon towards the purchase of a helicopter.

HELICOPTER

The cost of a used helicopter was still significantly more than that of the hot air balloon. Jeff Meyers, a retiring contract delivery provider for a mining operation, agreed to sell his helicopter to Graham for a price of $840,000 in exchange for the hot air balloon and $800,000 cash. The helicopter had 2,000 flight hours of life remaining and no residual value. Graham used the helicopter for 40 hours during the remainder of the year.

STORAGE FACILITY

On September 1, 2011, Graham negotiated to purchase the storage facility he had been renting previously for $86,000 cash. The facility would be depreciated using the straight-line method and had an expected useful life of 20 years, with an estimated residual value of $25,200. At the end of fiscal 2012, the building had an appraisal value of $78,600.

BUS

Graham had also purchased a used bus to transport people from Owen Sound to the air strip, since the Niagara Escarpment was a popular vacation spot for Owen Sound residents. The bus was purchased for $70,000 on September 1, 2008, and had an estimated residual value of $5,000 and a useful life of four years. At the beginning of the fiscal year, the bus had accumulated depreciation of $61,250. Graham used the double-diminishing-balance method to depreciate the bus.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

In anticipation of possibly purchasing a helicopter, Graham had commissioned a family friend to design a camera that he could mount on the bottom of the chopper. Graham envisioned this camera being controllablefromatablet,whichcustomerscouldusetotakepicturesduringtheflight.Grahamcouldthen sell the pictures to the customers after the flight concluded. In addition, Graham thought he could sell the designforthecameraandproducemoreunitstoselltofellowpilotsinotherregions.

He paid the designer $500 per month to work on the project, starting January 5, 2012. On July 3, 2012, Graham received a call from the designer saying that he had solved the majority of the preliminary research problems and the two decided to start development. They determined that these costs met the criteria for development. The part-time designer estimated that development would not be completed until sometime next fiscal year.

Required:

As Macarthur Graham, working asset by asset, post all required transactions for the financial year ending August 31, 2012.
