Exercise 2-17 (45 minutes)
1a. The estimated total manufacturing overhead cost is computed as fol-
lows:
Y = $910,000 + ($3.00 per MH)(50,000 MHs)
Estimated fixed manufacturing overhead ……………….
Estimated variable manufacturing overhead: $3.00
per MH × 50,000 MHs …………………………………….
Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost …………
The predetermined overhead rate is computed as follows:
Estimated total manufacturing overhead …….
÷ Estimated total machine-hours (MHs) ……..
= Predetermined overhead rate ………………..
Direct materials ……………………………………………….
Direct labor …………………………………………………….
Manufacturing overhead applied ($21.20
per MH × 20,000 MHs; $21.20 per MH ×
30,000 MHs) …………………………………………………
Total manufacturing cost …………………………..
1c. Bid prices for Jobs D-70 and C-200:
Total manufacturing cost …………………………..
× Markup percentage (150%) …………………………..
= Bid price ……………………………………………………..
1d. Because the company has no beginning or ending inventories and
only Jobs D-70 and C-200 were started, completed, and sold during
the year, the cost of goods sold is equal to the sum of the manufac-
turing costs assigned to both jobs of $3,070,000 (=$1,484,000 +
$1,586,000).
