The manufacturing cost of Calico Industries for three months of the year are provided below: Total Cost Production (units) April $120,000 280,000 May 74,000. 165,000 June 90,900 230,000 Using the high-low method, the variable cost per unit and the total fixed costs are
$0.40 per unit and $8,000 Difference in total cost = Total cost (highest level) - Total cost (lowest level) = $120,000 - $74,000 = $46,000 Variable Cost per Unit = Difference in Total Cost / Difference in Machine Hours = $46,000 / (280,000 - 165,000) = $0.40 Total Fixed Costs (highest level) = Total Costs - (Variable Cost per Unit × Machine Hours) = $120,000 - ($0.40 × 280,000 ) = $8,000
Department S had no work in process at the beginning of the period. It added 12,000 units of direct materials during the period at a cost of $84,000; 9,000 units were completed during the period; and 3,000 units were 30% completed as to labor and overhead at the end of the period. All materials are added at the beginning of the process. Direct labor was $49,500 and factory overhead was $9,900. The total cost of units completed during the period were
$117,000 Number of equivalent units for conversion costs during the period = [9,000 + (3,000 × 30%)] = 9,900 units Direct materials cost = [9,000 × ($84,000 / 12,000)] = $63,000 Direct labor cost = [($49,500 / 9,900) × 9,000] = $45,000 Factory overhead = [($9,900 / 9,900) × 9,000] = $9,000 Total cost of units completed during this period = $63,000 + $45,000 + $9,000 = $117,000

$269,550 Direct material cost = 18,000 units × $5 = $90,000 Conversion cost = (($142,300 + $57,200) / 20,000) × 18,000 units = $179,550 Total cost = $90,000 + $179,550 = $269,550
oy Manufacturing Company needs to know its anticipated cash inflows for the next quarter by month. Cash sales are 25 percent of total sales each month. Historically, sales on account have been collected as follows: 50 percent in the month of the sale, 30 percent in the month after the sale, and the remaining 20 percent two months after the sale. Gross sales for the quarter are projected as follows: January $20,000 February $10,000 March $40,000 Accounts receivable on December 31 were $30,000.

A manufacturing company applies factory overhead based on direct labor hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that factory overhead costs would be $360,000 and direct labor hours would be 30,000. Actual factory overhead costs incurred were $377,200, and actual direct labor hours were 36,000. What is the amount of overapplied or underapplied manufacturing overhead at the end of the year?
$54,800 overapplied - Predetermined Overhead Rate = Estimated Total Factory Overhead Costs / Estimated Activity Base = $360,000 / 30,000 direct labor hours = $12 per direct labor hour - Applied factory overhead costs = Predetermined overhead rate × Actual direct labor hours = $12 × 36,000 direct labor hours = $432,000 - Amount of overapplied overhead = Applied factory overhead costs - Actual factory overhead costs = $432,000 - $377,200 = $54,800
Given the following data: Beginning raw materials inventory : $30,000 Materials purchased: 65,000 Ending raw materials inventory: 40,000 What is the amount of raw materials used?

Lean manufacturing is a business philosophy that focuses on reducing time and cost and eliminating poor quality. This is accomplished in manufacturing and nonmanufacturing processes by
combining processing functions into work centers and cross-training workers to perform more than one function
If the variable cost of goods sold totaled $80,000 for the year (16,000 units at $5.00 each) and the planned variable cost of goods sold totaled $86,250 (15,000 units at $5.75 each), the effect of the quantity factor on the change in contribution margin is:
$5,750 decrease Variable Cost Quantity Factor = (Planned Units of Sales - Actual Units Sold) × Planned Unit Cost Variable Cost Quantity Factor = (15,000 units - 16,000 units) × $5.75 = -$5,750

A manufacturing company applies factory overhead based on direct labor hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that factory overhead costs would be $360,000 and direct labor hours would be 30,000. Actual manufacturing overhead costs incurred were $377,200, and actual direct labor hours were 36,000. The entry to apply the factory overhead costs for the year would include a
credit to Factory Overhead for $432,000 - Predetermined Overhead Rate = Estimated Total Factory Overhead Costs / Estimated Activity Base = $360,000 / 30,000 direct labor hours = $12 per direct labor hour - Applied factory overhead costs = Predetermined overhead rate × Actual direct labor hours = $12 × 36,000 direct labor hours = $432,000 - The journal entry to apply the factory overhead costs for the year would include a credit to Factory Overhead for $432,000.
Department F had 4,000 units in Work in Process that were 40% completed at the beginning of the period at a cost of $12,500. Of the $12,500, $8,000 was for material and $4,500 was for conversion costs. 14,000 units of direct materials were added during the period at a cost of $28,700. 15,000 units were completed during the period, and 3,000 units were 75% completed at the end of the period. All materials are added at the beginning of the process. Direct labor was $32,450 and factory overhead was $18,710. If the average cost method is used, the materials cost per unit (to the nearest cent) would be
$2.04 Equivalent units = 15,000 units + 3,000 units = 18,000 units Materials cost per equivalent unit = ($8,000 + $28,700) / 18,000 = $2.04 per equivalent unit
