Question

Four Finger Appliance Company manufactures small kitchen appliances. The product line consists of blenders and toaster ovens. Four Finger Appliance presently uses the multiple production department factory overhead rate method. The factory overhead is as follows: $186,000 Assembly Department Test and Pack Department 120,000 Total $306,000 The direct labor information for the production of 7,500 units of each product is as follows: Assembly Department Test and Pack Department Blender 750 dlh 2,250 dlh Toaster oven 2,250 750 Total 3,000 dlh 3,000 dlh Four Finger Appliance used direct labor hours to allocate production department factory overhead to products. The management of Four Finger Appliance Company has asked you to use activity-based costing to allocate factory overhead costs to the two products. You have determined that $81,000 of factory overhead from each of the production departments can be associated with setup activity ($162,000 in total). Company records indicate that blenders required 135 setups, while the toaster ovens required only 45 setups. Each product has a production volume of 7,500 units. If required, round all per unit answers to the nearest cent. a. Determine the three activity rates (assembly, test and pack, and setup). Assembly Activity $ per dih Test and Pack Activity $ per dlh Setup Activity per setup b. Determine the total factory overhead and factory overhead per unit allocated to each product using the activity rates in (a).

Answer 1

Assembly Activity $ Test and Packing Department $ Setup Activity $ 35 per dlh 13 per dih 900 per dlh ($186,000 - $81,000 = $105,000) ($105,000/3,000 dlh = $35 per dih) ($120,000 - $81,000 = $39,000) ($39,000/3,000 dlh = $13 per dih) ($162,000/180 setups = $900 per setup)

23.60 Product Total Factory Overhead Factory Overhead Cost per Unit Blender 1,77,000 $ ($35*750 dlh + $13*2,250 dlh + $900 * 135 Setups) ($1,77,000/7,500 units) Toaster Oven $ 1,29,000 $ ($35*2,250 dlh + $13*750 dlh + $900*45 Setups) ($1,129,000/7,500 units) 17.20
