Question 124

Essay

Bullie Manufacturing Corporation has a traditional costing system in which it applies manufacturing overhead to its products using a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labour-hours (DLHs).The company has two products,D31X and U75X,about which it has provided the following data:
 D31X  U75X  Direct materials per unit $29.20$47.40 Direct labour per unit $1.10$23.10 Direct labour hours per unit 0.102.10 Annual production 35,00015,000\begin{array} { | l | r | r | } \hline & \text { D31X } & \text { U75X } \\\hline \text { Direct materials per unit } & \$ 29.20 & \$ 47.40 \\\hline \text { Direct labour per unit } & \$ 1.10 & \$ 2 3 . 1 0 \\\hline \text { Direct labour hours per unit } & 0.10 & 2 . 1 0 \\\hline \text { Annual production } & 3 5 , 0 0 0 & 15,000 \\\hline\end{array}
The company's estimated total manufacturing overhead for the year is $1,147,650 and the company's estimated total direct labour-hours for the year is 35,000.
The company is considering using a variation of activity-based costing to determine its unit product costs for external reports.Data for this proposed activity-based costing system appear below:
 Activities and Activity Measures  Estimated Overhead Cost  Assembling products (DLHs) $140,000 Preparing batches (batches) 241,150 Axial milling (MHs)  766,500  Total $1,147,650\begin{array} { | l | r | } \hline \text { Activities and Activity Measures } & \text { Estimated Overhead Cost } \\\hline \text { Assembling products (DLHs) } & \$ 140,000 \\\hline \text { Preparing batches (batches) } & 241,150 \\\hline \text { Axial milling (MHs) } & \text { 766,500 } \\\hline \text { Total } & \$ 1,147,650 \\\hline\end{array}
 Activities  D31X  U75X  Total  Assembling products 3,50031,50035,000 Preparing batches 5601,2951,855 Axial milling 1,5401,0152,555\begin{array} { | l | r | r | r | } \hline \text { Activities } & \text { D31X } & \text { U75X } & \text { Total } \\\hline \text { Assembling products } & 3 , 5 0 0 &3 1 , 5 0 0 & 3 5 , 0 0 0 \\\hline \text { Preparing batches } & 560 & 1,295 & 1,855 \\\hline \text { Axial milling } & 1,540 & 1,015 & 2,555 \\\hline\end{array}
Required:
