Rockwell Collins, headquartered in Cedar Rapids, IA, sells aviation and information technology systems. Rockwell applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of machine-hours. At the beginning of the most recent year, a small division of the company based its predetermined overhead rate on total estimated overhead of $60,600. Actual manufacturing overhead for the year amounted to $59,000 and actual machine-hours were 5,900. The company's predetermined overhead rate for the year was $10.10 per machine-hour. Therefore, the overhead for the year was:
Dixon Robotics manufactures three robot models: the A3B4, the BC11, and the C3PO. Dixon allocates manufacturing overhead to each model based on machine-hours. A large portion of the company’s manufacturing overhead costs is incurred by the Maintenance Department. This year, the department anticipates that it will incur $100,000 in total costs. The following estimates pertain to the upcoming year. Model Estimated Machine-Hours Estimated Unitsof Production A3B4 20,000 6,250 BC11 15,000 5,000 C3PO 5,000 2,500 Ed Smith, Dixon’s cost accountant, suspects that unit costs are being distorted by using a single activity base to allocate Maintenance Department costs to products. Thus, he is considering the implementation of activity-based costing (ABC). Under the proposed ABC method, the costs of the Maintenance Department would be allocated to the following activity cost pools using the number of work orders as an activity base: (1) the repairs pool and (2) the janitorial…
SmokeCity, Inc., manufactures barbeque smokers. Based on past experience, SmokeCity has found that its total annual overhead costs can be represented by the following formula: Overhead cost = $520,475 + $1.49X, where X equals number of smokers.

Lehighton Chalk Company manufactures sidewalk chalk, which it sells online by the box at $25 per unit. Lehighton uses an actual costing system, which means that the actual costs of direct material, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead are entered into work-in-process inventory. The actual application rate for manufacturing overhead is computed each year; actual manufacturing overhead is divided by actual production (in units) to compute the application rate. Information for Lehighton's first two years of operation is as follows: Sales (in units) Production (in units) Production costs: Variable manufacturing costs Fixed manufacturing overhead Selling and administrative costs: Variable Fixed Based on absorption costing Finished-goods inventory Retained earnings Year 1 2,600 3,100 $15,500 18,600 Based on variable costing Finished-goods inventory Retained earnings LEHIGHTON CHALK COMPANY Selected Balance Sheet Information End of Year 1 10,400 9,400 $ 5,500 11,100 Selected information…
