Problem 4-30

Maverick Wings, Inc. manufactures airplanes for use in stunt shows. Maverick's factory is highly automated, using the latest in robotic technology. To keep costs low, the company employs as few factory workers as possible. Since each plane has different features (such as its shape, weight, and color), Maverick uses a job order costing system to accumulate product costs.
At the end of 2013, Maverick's accountants developed the following expectations for 2014 based on the marketing department's sales forecast:

Budgeted overhead cost		$1,132,000
Estimated machine hours		45,000
Estimated direct labor hours		10,000
Estimated direct materials cost		$1,500,000

Maverick's inventory count, completed on December 31, 2013, revealed the following ending inventory balances:

Raw Materials Inventory		$250,000
Work in Process Inventory		$625,000

The company's 2014 payroll data revealed the following actual payroll costs for the year:

Job Title	Number Employed	Wage Rate per Hour	Annual Salary per Employee	Total Hours Worked per Employee
President and CEO	1		$225,000
