An allocation base is a(n) Blank______.

measure of activity used to assign overhead costs to products and services

predetermined manufacturing overhead cost.

The formula for applying overhead to a specific job is: ______ amount of allocation base incurred by job.

predetermined overhead rate ×

In the formula Y = a + bX, X represents the estimated Blank______.

total amount of the allocation base

Traditional absorption costing systems allocate all manufacturing costs using a(n) ______ related allocation base.

volume

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?

$15,000 (120% of 5000 is 6000=predetermined overhead rate; $5000+$4000+$6000= $15,000)

Based on this information, the predetermined overhead rate per direct labor dollar for Dept. A is Blank______.

$2.60

Murphy Manufacturing estimated total manufacturing overhead for the year to be $100,000 and that 5,000 direct-labor hours would be used. Actual overhead was $120,000 and actual direct labor-hours were 7,500. The overhead applied to a job completed during the year that used 200 direct labor-hours was Blank______.

$4,000 (predetermined overhead rate * actual direct labor hours) $100,000/5000= 20; 20*200= $4,000

Which of the following would not be considered a direct labor cost in a service firm that uses job-order costing?

The salary of the manager at a hair salon.

Which of the following would not be considered a job in a service firm that uses job-order costing?

What absorption cost system(s) uses a volume-related allocation base for all of the manufacturing costs?

Traditional

In the formula Y = a + bX, b represents the estimated Blank______.

variable manufacturing overhead cost per unit

When a company uses cost-plus pricing, they consider both the costs of production and the desired profit.

False

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 $

Total cost of Job $42A = Direct materials + Direct labor + Predetermined overhead rate x Actual machine-hours = $18,000 + $12,000 + ($12 per machine-hour x 1,100 machine-hours) = $43,200
