Problem 5-4
A company has two departments that all goods pass through,
machining and assembly. Machining overhead is applied based on
machine hours and assembly overhead is applied based on direct
labor hours. Data on each department is as follows:
Machining | Assembly | |
Budgeted overhead | $75,000 | $40,000 |
Budgeted direct labor hours | 5,000 | 10,000 |
Budgeted machine hours | 25,000 | 1,000 |
Actual overhead | $75,400 | $39,200 |
Actual direct labor hours | 5,203 | 9,980 |
Actual machine hours | 25,040 | 850 |
A. Calculate the overhead rate for each department.
Machining OH rate | $ per machine hour |
Assembly OH rate | $ per direct labor hour |
B. What is each department's applied overhead?
Machining applied OH | $ |
Assembly applied OH | $ |
C. Calculate each department's overhead variance. Specify whether it is overapplied or underapplied.
Machining OH variance | $ | |
Assembly OH variance | $ |
Part 1 | Machining | Assembly |
Budgeted OH | 75000 | 40000 |
Budgeted direct labor hours | 5000 | 10000 |
Overhead Rate | $ 15.00 | $ 4.00 |
Part 2 | Machining | Assembly |
Actual DL Hours | 5203 | 9980 |
OH Rate | $ 15.00 | $ 4.00 |
Applied OH | $ 78,045.00 | $ 39,920.00 |
Part 3 | Machining | Assembly |
Applied OH | $ 78,045.00 | $ 39,920.00 |
Actual OH | $ 75,400.00 | $ 39,200.00 |
Overapplied | $ 2,645.00 | $ 720.00 |
