1.
a. Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated total overhead cost / Estimated number of patient days
Predetermined overhead rate = $17,200,000+(2000*$236+18,000*$96) / 20,000
Predetermined overhead rate = $17,200,000+472,000+1,728,000 / 20,000
Predetermined overhead rate = $19,400,000 / 20,000 = $970 per number of patient days
b.
Patient A | Patient B | |
Direct material | $4,500 | $6,200 |
Direct labor costs | 25,000 | 36,000 |
Applied overhead | 13,580 (14*$970) | 20,370 (21*$970) |
Total costs | $43,080 | $62,570 |
2.
Predetermined overhead rate (ICU) = $3,200,000+2,000*$236 / 2,000 = $1,836
Predetermined overhead rate (Other) = $14,000,000+18,000*$96 / 18,000 = $873.78
Patient A | Patient B | |
Direct material | $4,500 | $6,200 |
Direct labor costs | 25,000 | 36,000 |
Applied overhead | 12,233 (14*$873.78) | 25,085 (21-7*$873.78 + 7*$1,836) |
Total costs | $41,733 | $67,285 |

The staff accountant's approach shows more accurate results than the traditional approach as overhead costs are assigned based on number of patient days spent in ICU and number of patient days excluding ICU since overhead cost incurred in ICU will be different from overhead cost incurred in others.

Problem 2-20 Plant wide versus Multiple Predetermined Overhead Rates: Service Industry [LO2-1, LO2-2, LO2-3, LO2-4] McCullough Hospital uses a job-order costing system to assign costs to its patients. Its direct materials include a variety of items such as pharmaceutical drugs, heart valves, artificial hips, and pacemakers. Its direct labor costs (e.g., surgeons, anesthesiologists, radiologists, and nurses) associated with specific surgical procedures and tests are traced to individual patients. All other costs, such as depreciation of medical equipment, insurance, utilities, incidental...

please help Having a hard time with last question Historically, McCullough has used one predetermined overhead rate based on the number of patient-days (each night that a patient spends in the hospital counts as one patient-day) to allocate overhead costs to patients. Recently a member of the hospital's accounting staff has suggested using two predetermined overhead rates (allocated based on the number of patient-days) to improve the accuracy of the costs allocated to patients. The first overhead rate would include...
