Which of the following statements about using a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor is correct? Answers: It is often overly simplistic and incorrect to assume that direct labor-hours is a company's only manufacturing overhead cost driver. Using a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor costs will ensure that direct labor costs are correctly traced to jobs. Using a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor-hours will ensure that direct labor costs are correctly traced to jobs. The labor theory of value ensures that using a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor will do a reasonably good job of assigning all overhead costs to jobs.

Selected Answer: It is often overly simplistic and incorrect to assume that direct labor-hours is a company's only manufacturing overhead cost driver.

In a job-order costing system, indirect labor cost is usually recorded as a debit to: Answers: Manufacturing Overhead. Work in Process. Finished Goods. Cost of Goods Sold.

Selected Answer: Manufacturing Overhead.

In a job-order costing system based on machine-hours, which of the following formulae is correct? Answers: Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated manufacturing overhead ÷ Actual machine-hours.

Predetermined overhead rate = Actual manufacturing overhead ÷ Actual machine-hours.

Selected Answer: Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated manufacturing overhead ÷ Estimated machine-hours.

Which of the following statements concerning direct and indirect costs is false? Answers: Whether a particular cost is classified as direct or indirect does not depend on the cost object. A direct cost is one that can be easily traced to the particular cost object. A particular cost may be direct or indirect, depending on the cost object. The factory manager's salary would be classified as an indirect cost of producing one unit of product.

Selected Answer: Whether a particular cost is classified as direct or indirect does not depend on the cost object.

false

Generally speaking, when going through the process of computing a predetermined overhead rate, the estimated total manufacturing overhead cost is determined before estimating the amount of the allocation base.

false

If a company closes any underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead to the Cost of Goods Sold account, then Cost of Goods Sold will be debited if manufacturing overhead is overapplied for the period.

false

If the overhead rate is computed annually based on the actual costs and activity for the year, the manufacturing overhead assigned to any particular job can be computed as soon as the job is completed.

false

In a contribution format income statement for a manufacturing company, the cost of goods sold is deducted from sales to arrive at the contribution margin.

false

In the Schedule of Cost of Goods Sold, Cost of goods available for sale = Ending finished goods inventory + Cost of goods manufactured.

Job cost sheets contain entries for actual direct material, actual direct labor, and actual manufacturing overhead cost incurred in completing a job.

false

The entire difference between the actual manufacturing overhead cost for a period and the applied manufacturing overhead cost is typically closed to the Work In Process account.

false

The potential benefit that is given up when one alternative is selected over another is called a sunk cost.

false

Within the relevant range, a change in activity results in a change in variable cost per unit and total fixed cost.

false

A credit balance in the Manufacturing Overhead account at the end of the year means that manufacturing overhead was overapplied.

true

A factory supervisor's salary would be classified as an indirect cost with respect to a unit of product.

true

Advertising is not considered a product cost even if it promotes a specific product.

true

If the predetermined overhead rate is based on the estimated level of activity for the current period, the overhead charged to each product includes the cost of unused capacity.

true

If the predetermined overhead rate is based on the level of activity at capacity, the overhead charged to each product is normally lower than if the predetermined overhead rate had been based on the estimated level of activity for the current period.

true

In the Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured, Cost of goods manufactured = Total manufacturing costs + Beginning work in process inventory − Ending work in process inventory.

true

The sum of all manufacturing costs except for direct materials and direct labor is called manufacturing overhead.

true

When the fixed costs of capacity are spread over the estimated activity of the period rather than the level of activity at capacity, the units that are produced must shoulder the costs of unused capacity.
