116. Manufacturers of large equipment such as aircraft and ships and companies involved in
road construction have jobs that may require two or more years for completion. For example,
Boeing Corporation might have an order for 50 aircraft for a particular airline, and the order will
extend over a three- to five-year period. Aircraft are delivered as completed, but not in a batch of
50 at one time. In the typical fashion, the overhead application rate must be calculated and
applied in such a way that each aircraft that is delivered has the proper amount of overhead for
that aircraft.
Required:
What unique difficulties do you see in the calculation and application of overhead in industries
such as aircraft manufacturing or shipbuilding? How do you think these firms should respond to
these difficulties in determining overhead rates and applying overhead costs?
