Question :
Consider that Kent Manufacturing has two categories of overhead: quality inspection and material handling. The costs of expected for these categories for the coming year are as given:
material handling $100,000
quality of inspection $300,00
Total number of material moves 500
Total number of inspections 200
The plant presently applies overhead using direct labor hours and expected actual capability. This figure is 50,000 direct labor hours.
The plant manager has been asked to submit a bid and has assembled the subsequent data on the proposed job:
Direct Materials $3,700
Direct labor (1,000 hours) $7,000
Overhead ?
Number of material moves 10
Number of inspections 5
The plant manager has been told that various companies use an activity-based approach to allocate overhead to jobs. Before submitting her bid, she wants to assess the effects of this optional approach.
a. Evaluate the total cost of the potential job using traditional overhead application (i.e. direct labor hours to assign overhead)
b. Refer to the given information; evaluate the total cost of the job using the cost drivers to assign overhead, (i.e. number of material moves to allocate material handling costs and the number of inspections to allocate the quality inspection cost).
