The Zaf Radiator Company uses a normal-costing system with a single manufacturing overhead cost pool and machine-hours as the cost-allocation base. The following data are for 2017:
Requirements
1. Compute the budgeted manufacturing overhead rate for 2017 .
2. Compute the under- or overallocated manufacturing overhead of Zaf Radiator in 2017 . Dispose of this amount using the following:
a. Write-off to Cost of Goods Sold
b. Proration based on ending balances (before proration) in Work-in-Process Control, Finished Goods Control, and Cost of Goods Sold
c. Proration based on the overhead allocated in 2017 (before proration) in the ending balances of Work-in-Process Control, Finished Goods Control, and Cost of Goods Sold
3. Which method do you prefer in requirement 2 ? Explain.
Part 1:
Budgeted Overhead | Budgeted Machine Hours | Budgeted Absorption Rate |
4,875,000 | 65,000 | = 4875000/65000 |
75 |

#2: In the ratio of the actual hours utilised for the production of units in COGS, Finished Goods and Work in Progress. (In the ratio of (i) OH actually allocated (Actual Hours*Budgeted Overhead rate) or (ii) the hours utilised for each of the component-Both will be the same)
Part 3:
The best method in the Part 2 above will be allocation of Under absorbed Overheads in the ratio of Actual Hours Utilised for the production of units in COGS, Finished Goods and Work in Progress. (Part 2-c)
This would be the correct method as it will lead to the allocation in the ratio of Machine Hours and will remove the error of estimation in estimating the Overhead cost in calculation of the budgeted Overhead expenses. This will result in the same allocation if there had been no error in the initial estimation of the amount of Overhead.
