Maglie Company manufactures two video game consoles: handheld and home. The handheld consoles are smaller and less expensive than the home consoles. The company only recently began producing the home model. Since the introduction of the new product, profits have been steadily declining. Management believes that the accounting system is not accurately allocating costs to products, particularly because sales of the new product have been increasing.

Management has asked you to investigate the cost allocation problem. You find that manufacturing overhead is currently assigned to products based on their direct labor costs. For your investigation, you have data from last year. Manufacturing overhead was $1,296,000 based on production of 360,000 handheld consoles and 94,000 home consoles. Direct labor and direct materials costs were as follows.

Management has determined that overhead costs are caused by three cost drivers. These drivers and their costs for last year are as follows.

Required:

a. How much overhead will be assigned to each product if these three cost drivers are used to allocate overhead? What is the total cost per unit produced for each product?

b. How much overhead will be assigned to each product if direct labor cost is used to allocate overhead? What is the total cost per unit produced for each product?

Delph Company uses a job-order costing system and has two manufacturing departments—Molding and Fabrication. The company provided the following estimates at the beginning of the year:

During the year, the company had no beginning or ending inventories and it started, completed, and sold only two jobs—Job D-70 and Job C-200. It provided the following information related to those two jobs:

Delph had no underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead during the year.

2. Assume Delph uses departmental predetermined overhead rates based on machine-hours.

a. Compute the departmental predetermined overhead rates.

b. Compute the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job D-70 and Job C-200.

c. If Delph establishes bid prices that are 130% of total manufacturing costs, what bid prices would it have established for Job D-70 and Job C-200?

d. What is Delph’s cost of goods sold for the year?

What is the volume variance in fixed overhead? Is the volume variance in fixed overhead favorable or unfavorable?

Use the following scenario to help with the questions:

DeFleur manufactures bicycles. The bicycles are manufactured in two divisions. In the framing division, the carbon bicycle frames are manufactured. In the assembly division, the components are assembled to the frame and the bike is ready for sale. There is no market for the unassembled frames and all manufactured frames are transferred to the assembly division. For the purposes of performance evaluation, the framing division transfers the completed frames to the assembly division at the budgeted standard cost of a frame. The budgeted units of production for the framing division is 1,000, all of which will be transferred to the assembly division at the standard full absorption cost.

The budgeted costs for the framing division are as follows:

1.  Standard variable overhead is applied to products on the basis of direct labor hours at a rate of $4/unit produced.

Budgeted Fixed Overhead is $30,000 and the standard fixed cost per unit is based on the budgeted units of production.

Actual data for the period relating to the costs are as follows:

2. The framing division worked 7,500 direct labor hours during the year at a total cost of $93,750.

3.  A total of 9,000 carbon-fiber layers were purchased and used in production during the year at a total cost of $171,000

4. Total Budgeted cost for the framing department was $330,000. The total actual cost was $300,750

(Note that all the questions on variance are with respect to the framing department.)
