Direct factory overhead | Labor hours | |
High level of activity ( November ) | 108694 | 5720 |
(-) Low level of activity ( September ) | 83802 | 3760 |
Difference | 24892 | 1960 |
a. | |
Variable factory overhead cost per direct labor hour = Difference in Direct factory overhead / Difference in labor hours = 24892 / 1960 | 12.7 |
b. | |
Now let us calculate total fixed overhead cost using the data of high level of activity | |
Total direct factory overhead = ( Labor hours * Variable factory overhead cost per direct labor hour ) + Total fixed overhead cost | |
108694 = ( 5720 * 12.7 ) + Total fixed overhead cost | |
108694 = 72644 + Total fixed overhead cost | |
Total fixed overhead cost = 108694 - 72644 | 36050 |
c. |
Cost function : |
y = 36050 + 12.7x |
d. | |
Let us calculate total factory overhead cost at the level of 8000 hours using the cost function. | |
y = 36050 + 12.7*(8000) | 137650 |
