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:

  

Molding Fabrication Total
  Machine-hours 29,000 39,000     68,000
  Fixed manufacturing overhead costs $ 760,000 $ 280,000     $ 1,040,000
  Variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour $ 5.60 $ 5.60    

  

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:

  

  Job D-70: Molding Fabrication Total
  Direct materials cost $ 378,000 $ 324,000 $ 702,000

The Assembly Department uses a process cost accounting system and a weighted-average cost flow assumption. The department adds materials at the beginning of the process and incurs conversion costs uniformly throughout the process. During July, RM190,000 of materials costs and RM133,000 in conversion costs were charged to the department. The beginning work in process inventory was RM108,000 on July 1, comprised of RM80,000 of materials costs and RM28,000 of conversion costs.

Other data for the month of July are as follows:

Beginning work in process inventory, 7/1 25,000 units (40% complete)

Units completed and transferred out 90,000 units

Ending work in process inventory, 7/31 10,000 units (20% complete)

Required:

  1. Answer the following questions and show computations to support your answers.

  2. How many physical units have to be accounted for in July?

  3. What are the equivalent units of production for materials and for conversion costs for the month of July?

  4. What is the total cost assigned to the 90,000 units that were transferred out of the process in July?

  5. What is the total cost of the July 31 inventory?

Exercise 9-25 Activity-Based versus Traditional Costing (L.O. 4, 5, 6)

Rodent Corporation produces two types of computer mice, wired and wireless. The wired mice are designed as low-cost, reliable input devices. The company only recently began producing the higher-quality wireless 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 $1,154,000 based on production of 360,000 wired mice and 101,000 wireless mice. Direct labor and direct materials costs were as follows:

Wired Wireless Total
  Direct labor $ 1,033,000 $ 381,000 $ 1,414,000
  Materials 750,000 691,000 1,441,000

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

Activity Level
  Cost Driver Costs Assigned Wired Wireless Total
  Number of production runs $ 400,000 35 5 40
  Quality tests performed 578,000 14 20 34
  Shipping orders processed 176,000 110 50 160
     Total overhead $ 1,154,000
Requirement 1:
(a)

How much overhead will be assigned to each product if these three cost drivers are used to allocate overhead? (Omit the "$" sign in your response.)

Overhead
  Wired $   
  Wireless $   
(b)

What is the total cost per unit produced for each product? (Round your answers to 2 decimal places. Omit the "$" sign in your response.)

Cost per unit
  Wired $   
  Wireless $   
Requirement 2:
(a)

How much overhead will be assigned to each product if direct labor cost is used to allocate overhead? (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answers to the nearest dollar amount. Omit the "$" sign in your response.)

Overhead
  Wired $   
  Wireless $   
(b)

What is the total cost per unit produced for each product? (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places. Omit the "$" sign in your response.)

Cost per unit
  Wired $   
  Wireless $   
Requirement 3:

By allocating overhead on the basis of direct labor, Rodent has been understating the cost to manufacture Wireless mice thereby overstating the profits on the Wireless model.
