Exercise 2-14 (20 minutes)
1. The estimated total manufacturing overhead cost is computed as fol-
lows:
Y = $650,000 + ($3.00 per MH)(120,000 MHs)
Estimated fixed manufacturing overhead ……………….
Estimated variable manufacturing overhead: $3.00
per MH × 120,000 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 (rounded) ….
2. Total manufacturing cost assigned to Job 400:
Direct materials ……………………………………………….
Direct labor …………………………………………………….
Manufacturing overhead applied ($8.42 per MH × 40
MHs) (rounded to the nearest dollar)………………….
Total manufacturing cost ……………………………………
3. Computing underapplied/overapplied overhead:
Actual manufacturing overhead (a) ……….
Actual machine-hours …………………………
× Predetermined overhead rate ……………
= Manufacturing overhead applied (b) …..
Underapplied overhead (a) – (b) …………..
The closing entry would increase cost of goods sold by $120,680 and de-
crease net operating income by $120,680.
