CHAPTER 9
1.)
Munoz Sporting Equipment manufactures baseball bats and tennis rackets. Department B produces the baseball bats, and Department T produces the tennis rackets. Munoz currently uses plantwide allocation to allocate its overhead to all products. Direct labor cost is the allocation base. The rate used is 200 percent of direct labor cost. Last year, revenue, materials, and direct labor were as follows:

Baseball Bats Tennis Rackets
Revenue $ 1,610,000 $ 1,150,000
Direct labor 340,000 170,000
Direct materials 566,000 294,000
________________________________________

Required:
(a) Compute the profit for each product using plantwide allocation. (Round your intermediate calculations to nearest whole dollar amount. Omit the “$” sign in your response.)

Profit
Baseball Bats $

Tennis Rackets $

________________________________________

(b) Maria, the manager of Department T, was convinced that tennis rackets were really more profitable than baseball bats. She asked her colleague in accounting to break down the overhead costs for the two departments. She discovered that had department rates been used, Department B would have had a rate of 150 percent of direct labor cost and Department T would have had a rate of 300 percent of direct labor cost. Recompute the profits for each product using each department’s allocation rate (based on direct labor cost). (Round your intermediate calculations to nearest whole dollar amount. Omit the “$” sign in your response.)

Profit
Baseball Bats $

Tennis Rackets $

2.) Rodent Corporation produces two types of computer mice, wired and wireless. The wired mice are designed as low-cost, reliable input devices. The company only recently began producing the higher-quality wireless model. Since the introduction of the new product, profits have been steadily declining. Management believes that the accounting system is not accurately allocating costs to products, particularly because sales of the new product have been increasing.
Management has asked you to investigate the cost allocation problem. You find that manufacturing overhead is currently assigned to products based on their direct labor costs. For your investigation, you have data from last year. Manufacturing overhead was $1,300,000 based on production of 310,000 wired mice and 116,000 wireless mice. Direct labor and direct materials costs were as follows:

Wired Wireless Total
Direct labor $ 1,037,000 $ 402,000 $ 1,439,000
Materials 730,000 673,000 1,403,000
________________________________________

Management has determined that overhead costs are caused by three cost drivers. These drivers and their costs for last year are as follows:

Activity Level
________________________________________
Cost Driver Costs Assigned Wired Wireless Total
Number of production runs $ 550,000 40 10 50
Quality tests performed 620,000 13 18 31

________________________________________

Requirement 3:
By allocating overhead on the basis of direct labor, Rodent has been understating the cost to manufacture Wireless mice thereby overstating the profits on the Wireless model.

3.) We-Clean, Inc., is a home-cleaning service. It originally specialized in serving small residential clients but recently started contracting for work in large apartment and office buildings. Julie Lodge, the owner, believes that the commercial sector has more growth opportunities and is considering dropping the residential service.
Twenty cleaning employees worked a total of 44,000 hours last year, 27,000 on residential jobs and 17,000 on commercial jobs. Wages were $16 per hour for all work done. Any materials used are included in overhead as supplies. All overhead is allocated on the basis of labor-hours worked, which is also the basis for customer charges. Because of increased competition for commercial accounts, Julie can charge $37 per hour for residential work, but only $27 per hour for commercial work.

Required:
(a) If overhead for the year was $133,350, what were the profits of the commercial and the residential services using labor-hours as the allocation base? (Do not round intermediate calculations.Round the answers to the nearest dollar amount. Input all amounts as positive values. Omit the “$” sign in your response.)

(c) Ms. Lodge should reconsider dropping residential services in favor of the commercial business.

4.) The personnel department at LastCall Enterprises handles many administrative tasks for the two divisions that make up LastCall: LaidBack and StressedOut. LaidBack division manages the company’s traditional business line. This business, although lucrative, is currently not growing. StressedOut, on the other hand, is the company’s new business, which has experienced double-digit growth for each of the last three years.
The cost allocation system at LastCall allocates all corporate costs to the divisions based on a variety of cost allocation bases. Personnel costs are allocated based on the average number of employees in the two divisions.
There are two basic activities in the personnel department. The first, which is called employee maintenance, manages employee records. Virtually all of this activity occurs when employees are hired or leave the company. The other activity is payroll, which is an ongoing activity and requires the same amount of work for each employee regardless of the employee’s salary.
Assorted data for LastCall for the last year follow:

LaidBack StressedOut Total
Number of employees (average) 105 32 137
Employees hired/leaving 5 25 30
________________________________________

The personnel department incurred the following costs during the year:

Employee maintenance $ 192,000
Payroll 24,660
________________________________________ ________________________________________
Total $ 216,660

________________________________________

(b) Suppose the company implements an activity-based cost system for personnel with the two activities, employee maintenance and payroll. Use the number of employees hired/leaving as the cost driver for employee maintenance costs and the average number of employees for payroll costs. What are the costs that will be allocated from personnel to LaidBack? To StressedOut? (Omit the “$” sign in your response.)

LaidBack StressOut

5.) Delta Parts, Inc., recently switched to activity-based costing from the department allocation method. The Fabrication Department manager has estimated the following cost drivers and rates:

Activity Centers Cost Drivers Rate per
Cost Driver Unit
Materials handling Pounds of material handled $ 17 per pound
Quality inspections Number of inspections $ 210 per inspection
Machine setups Number of machine setups $ 2,800 per setup
Running machines Number of machine-hours $ 20.00 per hour
________________________________________

Direct materials costs were $315,000 and direct labor costs were $137,000 during July, when the Fabrication Department handled 3,900 pounds of materials, made 750 inspections, had 40 setups, and ran the machines for 16,000 hours.

Required:
Use T-accounts to show the flow of materials, labor, and overhead costs from the four overhead activity centers through Work-in-Process Inventory and out to Finished Goods Inventory. (Omit the “$” sign in your response.)

3.) JFI Foods produces processed foods. Their basic ingredient is a feedstock that is mixed with other ingredients to produce the final packaged product. JFI purchases the feedstock from two suppliers, Rex Materials and Red Oak Chemicals. The quality of the final product depends directly on the quality of the feedstock. If the feedstock is not correct, JFI has to dispose of the entire batch. All feedstock in this business is occasionally “bad,” so JFI measures what they call the “yield,” which is measured as,

Yield = Good output ÷ Input
where the output and inputs are both measured in tons. As a benchmark, JFI expects to get 8 tons of good output for every 10 tons of feedstock purchased for a yield of 80 percent (= 8 tons of output ÷ 10 tons of feedstock).
Data on the two suppliers for the past year follow:

Rex
Materials Red Oak
Chemicals Total
Total inputs purchased 1,300.00 2,500.00 3,800.00
Good output (tons) 1,144.00 1,625.00 2,769.00
Average price (per ton) $ 98.00 $ 72.00 $ 80.89
________________________________________

Required:
Assume that the average quality, measured by the yield, and prices from the two companies will continue as in the past. What is the effective price for feedstock from the two companies when quality is considered? (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.
