Kluth Corporation has two manufacturing departments--Molding and Customizing. The company used the following data at the beginning of the year to calculate predetermined overhead rates:
| Molding | Customizing | Total | ||||
| Estimated total machine-hours (MHs) | 6,000 | 2,300 | 8,300 | |||
| Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead cost | $ | 15,000 | $ | 8,740 | $ | 23,740 |
| Estimated variable manufacturing overhead cost per MH | $ | 2.50 | $ | 2.00 | ||
During the most recent month, the company started and completed two jobs--Job C and Job M. There were no beginning inventories. Data concerning those two jobs follow:
| Job C | Job M | |||||
| Direct materials | $ | 15,100 | $ | 8,800 | ||
| Direct labor cost | $ | 22,000 | $ | 9,000 | ||
| Molding machine-hours | 2,700 | 3,300 | ||||
| Customizing machine-hours | 1,700 | 600 | ||||
Required:
Assume that the company uses departmental predetermined overhead rates with machine-hours as the allocation base in both production departments. Further assume that the company uses a markup of 20% on manufacturing cost to establish selling prices. Calculate the selling prices for Job C and for Job M. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)

Waterways Corporation uses very stringent standard costs in
evaluating its manufacturing efficiency. These standards are not
“ideal” at this point, but the management is working toward that as
a goal. At present, the company uses the following
standards.
| Materials | ||||||
| Item | Per unit | Cost | ||||
| Metal | 1 lb. | 63¢ per lb. | ||||
| Plastic | 12 oz. | $1.00 per lb. | ||||
| Rubber | 4 oz. | 88¢ per lb. | ||||
| Direct labor | ||||||
| Item | Per unit | Cost | ||||
| Labor | 15 min. | $8.00 per hr. | ||||
| Predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor hours = $4.68 | ||||||
The January figures for purchasing, production, and labor
are:
| The company purchased 231,800 pounds of raw materials in January at a cost of 78¢ a pound. |
| Production used 231,800 pounds of raw materials to make 117,000 units in January. |
| Direct labor spent 18 minutes on each product at a cost of $7.70 per hour. |
| Overhead costs for January totaled $71,489 variable and $70,000 fixed. |

FIFO Method, Valuation of Goods Transferred Out and Ending Work in Process
K-Briggs Company uses the FIFO method to account for the costs of production. For Crushing, the first processing department, the following equivalent units schedule has been prepared:
| Direct Materials | Conversion Costs | |||||||
| Units started and completed | 25,000 | 25,000 | ||||||
| Units, beginning work in process: | ||||||||
| 10,000 × 0% | — | — | ||||||
| 10,000 × 40% | — | 4,000 | ||||||
| Units, ending work in process: | ||||||||
| 6,000 × 100% | 6,000 | — | ||||||
| 6,000 × 75% | — | 4,500 | ||||||
| Equivalent units of output | 31,000 | 33,500 | ||||||
The cost per equivalent unit for the period was as follows:
| Direct materials | $2.00 | |
| Conversion costs | 6.00 | |
| Total | $8.00 |
The cost of beginning work in process was direct materials, $40,000; conversion costs, $30,000.

Diminishing returns *
1 point
a. characterize all stages of production.
b. eventually occur in all short-run production situations.
c. are always associated with declining average product in the short-run.
d. exist in the short run, because as additional units of an input are hired, the firm has to accept less satisfactory units.
In the long run, average total cost exhibits a pattern just like the short run average total cost because of this reason. *
1 point
a. Increasing and decreasing returns are associated with more outputs produced.
b. Economies and diseconomies of scale are experienced as a firm gets bigger in size.
c. Law of diminishing returns starts to set in.
d. None of the above explains the shape of a long run average total cost curve

A summary of Flaker Company’s manufacturing variance report for June 2019 follows.
| Total Standard Costs (7,600 units) | Actual Costs (7,600 units) | Variances | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Direct material | $66,880 | $66,150 | $730 | F | |||||
| Direct labor | 77,520 | 81,420 | 3,900 | U | |||||
| Variable overhead | 33,060 | 33,000 | 60 | F | |||||
| Fixed overhead | 102,600 | 102,600 | - | ||||||
| $280,060 | $283,170 | $3,110 | U | ||||||
Standard materials cost per unit of product is 4 pounds at $2.20 per pound, and standard direct labor cost is 0.75 hour at $13.60 per hour. Total actual materials cost represents 31,500 pounds purchased at $2.10 per pound. Total actual labor cost represents 5,900 hours at $13.80 per hour. According to standards, variable overhead rate is applied at $5.80 per direct labor hour (based on a normal capacity of 6,000 direct labor hours or 8,000 units of product). Assume that all fixed overhead is applied to work-in-progress inventory.
a. Determine the following variances: material, labor, and vairiable overhead
Do not use negative signs with any of your answers. Next to each variance answer, select either "F" for Favorable or "U" for Unfavorable.

Moody Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a plantwide overhead rate based on machine-hours. At the beginning of the year, the company made the following estimates: Machine-hours required to support estimated production 153,000 Total estimated manufacturing overhead cost $ 1,369,350 Required: 1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) 2. During the year, Job 400 was started and completed. The following information was available with respect to this job: Direct materials requisitioned $ 310 Direct labor cost $ 290 Machine-hours used 31 Compute the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job 400. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round final answer to 2 decimal places.) 3-a. During the year the company worked a total of 145,600 machine-hours on all jobs and incurred actual manufacturing overhead costs of $1,305,620. What is the amount of underapplied or overapplied overhead for the year? (Use the overhead rate determined in requirement 1.) 3-b. If this amount were closed out entirely to Cost of Goods Sold, would net operating income increase or decrease? Increase Decrease
