$840

The most widely used allocation bases in manufacturing:

- Direct Labor Hours - Direct Labor Cost - Machine Hours - Units of product (where a company only produces one product)

A job cost sheet contains:

- Materials costs charged to the job - Manufacturing overhead costs charged to the job - Labor costs charged to the job

Manufacturing overhead costs:

- consist of many different items - are indirect costs

Manufacturing overhead:

- is an indirect cost - consists of many different types of costs - contains fixed costs

If Estimated manufacturing overhead is 450,000 and Estimated direct labor hours is 150,000, what is the predetermined overhead rate per direct labor hour?

Smith, Inc. uses a job-order costing system with the predetermined overhead rate of $12 per machine-hour. The job cost sheet for Job #42A listed $12,000 in direct labor cost, $18,000 in direct materials cost, 1,200 direct labor-hours and 1,100 machine-hours. The total cost of Job #42A is

43,200

When a company creates overhead rates based on the actions it performs, it is employing an approach called

Activity Based Costing

Why do companies use a predetermined overhead rate rather than an actual overhead rate?

An actual overhead rate is not known until the end of the period.

Job-order costing would most likely be used in a(n) ______.

Construction Company

Companies that make many different products each period use

Job Order Costing

A single predetermined overhead rate is called a(n) __________

Plantwide Overhead Rate

If Estimated direct labor cost is $250,000, Actual manufacturing overhead is $720,000, Actual direct labor cost is $300,000, what is the predetermined overhead rate per direct labor dollar is:

Reason: $500,000/$250,000 = $2 per direct labor dollar.

Total manufacturing overhead costs tend to:

remain fairly constant

The formula for a predetermined overhead rate is:

Allocation Base

Which of the following is only true in a multiple predetermined overhead rate system?

Each production department may have its own predetermined overhead rate.

If Dept. A has an Estimated manufacturing overhead of $338,000, Estimated direct labor cost of $130,000, Actual manufacturing overhead of $400,000, & Actual direct labor cost of $160,000, what is the predetermined overhead rate per direct labor dollar for Dept. A?

Reason: $338,000/$130,000 = $2.60

Jones Company uses a job-order costing system with a predetermined overhead rate of 120% of direct labor cost. The job cost sheet for Job #420 showed that Jones Company spent $4,000 on direct materials and $5,000 on direct labor on the job. What is the total cost of Job #420?

Reason: Cost of Job #420 = Direct materials + Direct labor + Predetermined overhead rate x Direct labor cost = $4,000 + $5,000 + 120% x $5,000 = $15,000.

Jones Company uses a job-order costing system with a predetermined overhead rate of 120% of direct labor cost. The job cost sheet for Job #420 listed $4,000 in direct materials cost and $5,000 in direct labor cost to manufacture 7,500 units. The unit cost of Job #420 is:

Reason: Total cost of Job #420 = Direct materials + direct labor + overhead (predetermined overhead rate x direct labor cost) = $4,000 + $5,000 + 1.20 x $5,000 = $15,000 Unit product cost = $15,000/7,500 units = $2.00 per unit.

The document used to record the time workers spend on each job and task is called a:

Time Ticket

In the formula Y = a + bX, a represents the estimated:

Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost

True or false: One reason to use a predetermined overhead rate is to eliminate the effect of seasonal factors.

True

True or false: Underapplied or overapplied overhead occurs because overhead is applied to jobs using a predetermined rate based on estimates of costs and activity levels.

True

A cost driver is:

a factor that causes overhead costs to occur

Cost-plus pricing occurs when:

a markup percentage is added to the cost of a job

The adjustment for overapplied overhead:

decreases cost of goods sold and increases net income

Labor costs that are easily traced to a job are called

direct labor

many different kinds of indirect costs

A multiple predetermined overhead rate system is more accurate than a plantwide overhead rate system because it:

reflects differences in how overhead costs are incurred within departments

The total cost of a job is calculated by adding the total of direct labor cost, direct materials cost and

applied manufacturing overhead cost

Allocation bases that do not drive overhead costs:

can cause product costs to be distorted

The total cost of a job includes:

direct materials cost direct labor cost applied manufacturing overhead

Categories of manufacturing costs include:

direct materials, direct labor, manufacturing overhead

Average manufacturing overhead cost per unit usually varies from one period to the next because:

fixed manufacturing overhead remains constant in total even when production changes

In a system that uses multiple predetermined overhead rates, overhead is applied:

in each department as jobs proceed through the department

The predetermined overhead rate is multiplied by the actual allocation base incurred by a job to find:

overhead applied to the job

The average manufacturing overhead cost per unit tends to

vary from one period to the next
