Hiassen Company's predetermined overhead rate is based on direct labor costs. The company's Work in process inventory account has a balance of $4,856, which relates to the one job that was in process at the end of an accounting period. The related job cost sheet includes total charges of $1,176 for direct materials and $2,000 for direct labor. The company's predetermined overhead rate, as a percentage of direct labor costs, must be: 70%. 84%. 24%. 42%.

84% First, determine the amount of manufacturing overhead applied to the uncompleted job(s) as follows.

Astair, Inc. reported sales of $8,110,000 for the month and incurred variable expenses totaling $4,541,600 and fixed expenses totaling $2,068,000. The company has no beginning or ending inventories. A total of 81,100 units were produced and sold last month. How many units would the company have to sell to achieve a desired profit of $1,852,400? 123,200 units 89,100 units 47,000 units 128,100 units

89,100 units First, determine the contribution margin (CM) per unit as follows. Total contribution margin/Number of units sold = CM per unit $3,568,400/81,100 = $44 per unit Then, the total unit sales required to achieve the desired targeted profit is determined as follows. Break-even point in units = (Fixed expenses + Desired targeted profit) ÷ CM per unit Break-even point (in units) = ($2,068,000 + $1,852,400) ÷ $44 per unit = 89,100 units

Manufacturing overhead $28,000 and Work in process $18,000 Work in process $28,000 and Raw materials $18,000 Raw materials $28,000 and Manufacturing overhead $18,000 Work in process $28,000 and Manufacturing overhead $18,000

Work in process $28,000 and Manufacturing overhead $18,000 The journal entry would debit Work in process for 28,000, debit Manufacturing overhead for 18,000, and credit Raw materials for 46,000.

Suppose a total of $30,000 of overhead is applied to jobs. What account will be debited? Cost of goods sold $30,000 Manufacturing overhead $30,000 Finished goods $30,000 Work in process $30,000

Work in process $30,000 The journal entry would debit Work in process for $30,000 and credit Manufacturing overhead for $30,000.

The ending Finished goods account balance is determined by adding the beginning balance to the: cost of goods sold and then subtracting the cost of goods manufactured. cost of goods manufactured and then subtracting the cost of goods sold. direct materials, direct labor, and overhead applied. actual amount of overhead and the subtracting the amount of overhead applied.

cost of goods manufactured and then subtracting the cost of goods sold.

If the activity level increases, one would expect the fixed cost per unit to: increase none of these decrease remain unchanged

decrease

In multiple product companies, a shift in the sales mix from less profitable products to more profitable products will cause the company's break-even point to: none of these increase not change decrease

decrease---- shift to more profitable products would result in an increase in the overall CM ratio. Thus, fewer sales would be needed to cover the fixed costs and the break-even would therefore decrease.

If the activity level drops by 12%, variable costs should: drop in total by 12% decrease per unit cost of product increase per unit cost of product remain constant in total

drop in total by 12% By definition, total variable cost changes in proportion to changes in the activity level.

A long-established practice in industry is to determine the predetermined overhead rate as follows: estimated total manufacturing overhead cost divided by estimated or budgeted activity at capacity. estimated total manufacturing overhead cost at capacity divided by estimated or budgeted activity. estimated total manufacturing overhead cost divided by estimated or budgeted activity. estimated total manufacturing overhead cost at capacity divided by estimated or budgeted activity at capacity.

estimated total manufacturing overhead cost divided by estimated or budgeted activity. Determining the predetermined overhead rate by dividing estimated total manufacturing overhead cost by estimated or budgeted activity is a long-established practice in industry.

The cost of warranty repairs is an example of: internal failure cost appraisal cost prevention cost external failure cost

external failure cost

Redford, Inc. has provided the following data: Sales price $205 per unit Sales 6,250 units Fixed cost $305,000 Variable cost $110 per unit If the dollar contribution margin per unit is increased by 10%, total fixed cost is decreased by 20%, and all other factors remain the same, net income will: increase by $59,375. increase by $120,375. decrease by $61,000. increase by $409,125.

increase by $120,375.

Traditionally, the predetermined overhead rate is based on the estimated total amount of the allocation base for the next year. If demand falls due to a recession or other reason, the estimated total amount of the allocation base: is likely to increase. is likely to stay the same. is likely to decrease. may change in any manner.

is likely to decrease. If demand falls due to a recession or other reason, the estimated total amount of the allocation base is likely to fall (or decrease).

The cost of quality training is an example of: external failure cost appraisal cost prevention cost internal failure cost

prevention cost

In a job-order costing system, the basic document for accumulating costs for a specific job is: the materials requisition form the Work in Process inventory account the labor time ticket the job cost sheet

the job cost sheet --- used to accumulate direct materials, direct labor, and overhead costs.

When switching from a traditional costing system to an activity-based costing system that contains some batch-level costs: the unit product costs of high volume products typically decrease and the unit product costs of low volume products typically increase. the unit product costs of both high and low volume products typically decrease. the unit product costs of both high and low volume products typically increase. the unit product costs of high volume products typically increase and the unit product costs of low volume products typically decrease.

the unit product costs of high volume products typically decrease and the unit product costs of low volume products typically increase.

An activity-based costing system that is designed for internal decision-making will not conform to generally accepted accounting principles because: under activity-based costing the sum of all product costs does not equal the total costs of the company. activity-based costing results in less accurate costs than more traditional costing methods based on direct labor-hours or machine-hours. under activity-based costing some manufacturing costs (i.e., the costs of idle capacity and organization-sustaining costs) will not be assigned to products. activity-based costing has not been approved by the United Nation's International Accounting Board.

under activity-based costing some manufacturing costs (i.e., the costs of idle capacity and organization-sustaining costs) will not be assigned to products.

Unit product cost information is used for: determining nonmanufacturing costs. valuing unsold units in ending inventory and for determining cost of goods sold. raw materials used in production. manufacturing overhead costs.

valuing unsold units in ending inventory and for determining cost of goods sold.

A process costing system is employed in those situations where: where manufacturing involves a single, homogeneous product that flows evenly through the production process on a continuous basis. full or absorption cost approach is not employed. many different products, jobs, or batches of production are being produced each period. a service is performed such as in a law firm or an accounting firm.
