Using the high-low method of cost estimation, total fixed costs are: a.$33,875 b.$24,750 c.$61,875 d.cannot be determined from the data given.

24,750 Difference in total cost = Total cost (highest level) - Total cost (lowest level) = $86,625 - $49,500 = $37,125 Variable Cost per Unit = Difference in Total Cost / Difference in Machine Hours = $37,125 / (4,500 - 1,800) = $13.75 Total Fixed Costs (highest level) = Total Costs - (Variable Cost per Unit × Machine Hours) = $86,625 - ($13.75 × 4,500) = $24,750

Start of 19: If fixed costs are $264,000, the unit selling price is $29, and the unit variable costs are $21, what is the break-even sales (units) if fixed costs are reduced by $37,100? a.22,690 units b.42,544 units c.28,363 units d.34,035 units

28,363 units Break-Even Sales (units) = Fixed Costs / Unit Contribution Margin = ($264,000 - $37,100) / ($29 - $21) = 28,363 units

The following unit data were assembled for the assembly process of the Super Co. for the month of April. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process. Conversion costs are added uniformly over the production process. The company uses the FIFO method. Beginning work in process, (60% completed). 5,000 Units started in April 48,000 Ending work in process, (30% completed). 4,000 The number of equivalent units produced with respect to conversion costs is: a.46,200 b.48,000 c.50,200 d.53,000

46,200 Equivalent units = (5,000 × 40%) + (48,000 - 5,000) + (4,000 × 30%) = 46,200 units

Carmelita Inc., has the following information available: Costs from Beg Inv. Costs from current Period Direct materials. $5,700. $24,300 Conversion costs. 5,400. 155,200 At the beginning of the period, there were 600 units in process that were 44% complete as to conversion costs and 100% complete as to direct materials costs. During the period, 4,800 units were started and completed. Ending inventory contained 300 units that were 28% complete as to conversion costs and 100% complete as to materials costs. The company uses the FIFO process cost method. The equivalent units of production for direct materials and conversion costs, respectively, were: a.5,220 for direct materials and 5,100 for conversion costs b.5,220 for direct materials and 5,220 for conversion costs c.4,800 for direct materials and 5,220 for conversion costs d.5,100 for direct materials and 5,220 for conversion costs

5,100 for direct materials and 5,220 for conversion costs Equivalent units for direct materials = Number of units of direct materials added during the period = 4,800 + 300 = 5,100 units Equivalent units for conversion costs = (600 × 56%) + (4,800) + (300 × 28%) = 5,220 units

The total factory overhead for Big Light Company is budgeted for the year at $2,025,220. Big Light manufactures two different products, night lights and desk lamps. Night lights is budgeted for 16,600 units. Each night light requires two hour of direct labor. Desk lamps is budgeted for 19,900 units. Each desk lamp requires three hours of direct labor. Determine the total number of budgeted direct labor hours for year: ______________________ Determine the single plantwide factory overhead rate using direct labor hours as the allocation base. Round your answer to two decimal places, if necessary. _________________________ Determine the factory overhead allocated per unit for each product using the single plantwide factory overhead rate calculated in (b). Round your answers to two decimal places, if necessary. Night lights: ____________ per unit Desk lamps:_____________ per unit

92,900 (16,600 × 2) + (19,900 × 3) = 92,900 direct labor hours 21.8 $2,025,220/92,900 = $21.80 per direct labor hour 43.6 Night Lights = $21.80 × 2 = $43.60 per unit 65.40 Desk Lamps = $21.80 × 3 = $65.40 per unit

Common allocation bases are: a.machine dollars, direct labor dollars, direct labor hours b.direct labor dollars, direct labor hours, machine hours c.direct labor dollars, direct labor hours, machine dollars d.direct labor dollars, direct labor hours, direct material dollars
