Several years after reengineering its production process, Zeke Corporation hired a new controller, Alice Brown. She developed an ABC system very similar to the one used by Zeke's chief rival. Part of the reason Brown developed the ABC system was because Zeke's profits had been declining even though the company had shifted its product mix toward the product that had appeared most profitable under the old system. Before adopting the new ABC system, the company had used a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor hours that was developed years ago.
For the upcoming year, Zeke's budgeted ABC manufacturing overhead allocation rates are as follows:
The number of parts is now a feasible allocation base because Kane recently installed a plantwide computer system. Kane produces two wheel models: Standard and Deluxe. Budgeted data for the upcoming year are as follows:
Requirement 1. Compute the total budgeted manufacturing overhead cost for the upcoming year.
Requirement 2. Compute the manufacturing overhead cost per wheel of each model using ABC.
Requirement 3. Compute the company's traditional plantwide overhead rate. Use this rate to determine the manufacturing overhead cost per wheel under the traditional system.
Begin by identifying the formula to compute the current plantwide manufacturing overhead rate, then compute the rate. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
Now use the plantwide overhead rate to determine the manufacturing overhead cost per wheel.

Total Budgeted Indirect Manufacturing Costs | |||
Activity | Budgeted Quantity of Cost Allocation Base | Activity Cost Allocation Rate | Total Budgeted Indirect Cost |
Materials Handling* | ( 8 + 10 ) * 1000= 18,000 | $4 per part | $72,000 |
Machine Setups** | 20 + 20 = 40 | $375 per setup | $15,000 |
Insertion of Parts*** | ( 8 + 10 ) * 1000 = 18,000 | $28 per part | $504,000 |
Finishing**** | ( 2.0 + 3.5 ) * 1000 = 5,500 | $54 per hour | $297,000 |
Total Budgeted Indirect Costs | $888,000 |
Materials Handling* - As the parts per wheel of Standard and Deluxe were 8 and 10 respectively, therefore, to arrive at the total overhead costs for 1,000 wheels, the total parts were multiplied by 1,000.
Machine Setups** - As the number of setups were given for 1000 wheels, therefore, no adjustment is required.
Insertion of Parts*** - As the direct labor hours utilized for insertion of parts was given per wheel, therefore, it has been multiplied by 1,000 to get the total overhead cost.
Finishing**** - Direct Labor hours utilized for finishing was given per wheel, therefore multiplied by 1000 to get the cost of 1000 wheels.

o. | Total Manufacturing Cost for 1000 wheels (d+ g+ j + n ) | $371,500 | $516,500 |
p. | Manufacturing Overhead Cost per Wheel (o / 1000) | $371.50 | $516.50 |
3. Plant-wide overhead rate based on Direct Labor Hours.
Total Direct Labor Hours = ( Total Direct Labor Hours per wheel of Standard + Total Direct Labor Hours per wheel of Deluxe )*1000
= ( 2.6 + 3.4 ) *1000
= 6,000 labor hours.
Total Manufacturing Overhead Costs = $888,000 (as calculated in 1 above)
Manufacturing Overhead Cost per hour = Total Manufacturing Overhead Costs / Total Direct Labor Hours
= $888,000 / 6,000 hours
= $148 per hour.
Manufacturing Overhead Cost per wheel of Standard = Total Direct Labor Hours per wheel of Standard * Manufacturing Overhead Cost per hour
= 2.6 * $148
= $384.80 per wheel.
Manufacturing Overhead Cost per wheel of Deluxe = Total Direct Labor Hours per wheel of Deluxe * Manufacturing Overhead Cost per hour
= 3.4 * $148
= $503.20 per wheel.
