Question 23 Saved At the beginning of the period, the Assembly Department budgeted direct labor of $110,000, direct material of $170,000 and fixed costs of $28,000 for 8,000 hours of production. The department actually completed 10,000 hours of production. What is the appropriate total budget for the department, assuming it uses flexible budgeting. a) $385,000 b) $335,500 c) $350,000 d) $378,000
Budgeted direct material for 8,000 hours = $170,000
Hence, direct material for 1 hour = 170,000/8,000
= $21.25
Budgeted direct labor for 8,000 hours = $110,000
Hence, direct labor for 1 hour = 110,000/8,000
= $13.75
Budget for 10,000 hours
Direct material (10,000 x 21.25) | 212,500 |
Direct labor (10,000 x 13.75) | 137,500 |
Fixed cost | 28,000 |
Total budget | 378,000 |
