Both production departments already prepared their overhead budget for next year which are shown with the letters OB (Overhead budget) Service departements transfer their budgeted overhead to production departments using the following basis: IT uses the number of services requested and Staff uses the number of employees. Required: Prepare the secondary allocation of overhead (service departments to production departments) and determine the amount of overhead costs for every production department assuming: A) Direct Method B) Sequential Method SOLUTION A)DIRECT METHOD: —_The service departments only transfer their budgeted overhead to production departments. Service departments never transfer their budgeted overhead to other service departments Percentages are obtained using the basis selected by every service department. Example: The basis selected by IT was the number of services. As we are using the Direct Method, the budgeted overhead is goint to be transfered only to the production departments: Trimming and Assemble. Therefore, the total sum of the number of services will be 100%. The number of services requested by Staff will not be considered to determine the 100% because we are Using the Direct Method and service departments are not considered. So, if Trimming has 1500 services and Assemble 200, 700 services is 100%. From there, the Three Rule (proportion) is applied to obtain the percentage for every production department. This % is ‘multiplied by $50,000 which is the amount of budgeted overhead that IT wants to transfer And that's it! The same procedure for Staff, the only difference will be thatthe basis used to calculate the percentages will be now the number of employees. DIRECT METHOD.

Overhead is transferred as a waterfall, always forward never bakewards. When a service department allocates its overhead, that department will not receive any more overhead from other service departments.

Tri RED: Calculate the overhead rates for each of the production departments so they can carry out the overhead allocation process. If Trimming used 2 machine hours per unit, Assembly used 3 machine hours per unit and Painting used 4 hours of direct labor for every unit, determine the amount of overhead costs that should be allocated in total to every unit. \5 COST AND PRICE MANAGEMENT.- Rocio Vega OVERHEAD ALLOCATION FROM SERVICE TO PRODUCTION DEPARTMENTS EX 7.5 Guan/Hansen/Mowen Sixth Edition Delille Company manufactures both traditional toothpaste and gel toothpaste, with each type of toothpaste produced in separate departments. Three support departments support the production departments: power, general factory and personnel.

The bases for allocation are: power-machine hours, general factory-square feet, and personnel- number of employees. Required: 1) Allocate the overhead costs to the producing departments using the direct method. 2) Using machine hours, compute departmental overhead rates that producing departments use to assign overhead costs to products, EX 7.6 Guan/Hanten/Mowen Sixth Edition Refer to the data in Exercise 7.5. The company has decided to use the sequential method of allocation instead of the direct method. Required 1) Allocate the overhead costs to the producing departments using the sequential method 2) Using machinge hours, compute departmental overhead rates. \o COST AND PRICE MANAGEMENT.- Rocio Vega Overhead Allocat Indirect Allocations, Inc. has two support departments and two operating departments in the production area, This company uses job-order costing and needs help handling its factory overhead costs. Each one of the four departments has completed an overhead budget. To prepate the secondary allocation of factory overhead costs consider that Energy costs distributes its, overhead costs based on the usage of kilowatts- hour and Maintenance based on the maintenance hours used.

The expected use is 80,000 machine hours and 90,000 direct labor hours respectively. 3. Based on the rates from the previous question, find the total amount of overhead to be applied to order no. 345, which used 300 machine hours and 470 direct labor hours.

How much overhead costs should be allocated to every unit of Job 525? ¢. If Job 525 has 75 units of product, what should be the total cost of that job? 20 COSTAND PRICE MANAGEMENT.- Rocio Vega Overhead Allocation Ex. Anderson Allocation, Inc. manufactures screws. The company has three service departments: Maintenance, Tools and Inspection, and two production departments: Grooving and Shaping. To calculate the estimated rates for the allocation of overhead expenses, each one of the departments has budgeted their overhead expenses for the following year, which are presented below: Maintenance $27,520 Tools $61,600 Inspection $20,550 Shaping $48,535 Grooving $41,795, Total budget $200,000 This company uses a combined method(both methods included in one allocation table) to execute the secondary allocation of its overhead and has the following information to get it through: a) The department of Maintenance distributes its overhead to all departments, including the service departments. This distribution is made based on the expected number of service requests. This information is presented here: No. Of service requests: Tools 640 Inspection 145 Shaping 1,164 Grooving 803 Total expected requests 2,752 b) The department of Tools allocates its budgeted overhead directly to the production departments, using expected machine hours as a base. Shaping estimates to use 54,400 machine hours and Grooving 81,600. c) The Inspection department also assigns its overhead budget only to production departments, using units produced as the base. Both Shaping and Grooving expect to produce 42,000 units each. To calculate the overhead rate for each production department the company has chosen direct labor hours as the allocation base. Shaping 2l estimates 54,400 direct labor hours and Grooving estimates 13,600 direct labor hours. Determine: 1) Amount of overhead costs that Tools allocates to Grooving 2) The overhead rate of the Shaping department 3) If the actual direct labor hours used in Shaping and Grooving were 2hrs/unit and 3hrs/unit, respectively, determine the amount of overhead that should be applied to every unit. 22 COST AND PRICE MANAGEMENT.- Rocio Vega OVERHEAD ALLOCATION, OH RATES AND APPLIED OH 5.25 Anderson Summer Time, Inc. uses the Sequential Method in all its departments to allocate overhead from its service departments to its production departments. There are 3 production departments: Grinding, Polishing and Finishing. The costs for the 4 support departments are allocated in the following order: Security, Repairs, Service, and Engineering. The allocation bases are presented below (marked with *) along with the overhead budget for each department for year 2XXX: Department Overhead budget Labor hrs*1 #ofemployees*2 Sq. mts *3 Grinding $100,000 3,000 100 3,000 Polishing $40,000 2,000 125 2,000 Finishing $60,000 4,000 15 2,000 *2 $30,000 1,000 10 500 Repairs *1 $50,000 5,000 80 1,500 Service *3 $70,000 6,000 20 1,000 Engineering *1 $20,000 3,000 90 500 Every production departmen uses the following estimated bases to calculate its overead rate: Estimated base: Grinding: 80,000 Machine hours Polishing 60,000 Machine hours Finishing 90,000 Machine hours Every unit of product actually used: In Grinding: 2 Machine hours In Polishing 3 Machine hours In Finishing 4 Machine hours Required: 1) Determine the total overead budget for Polishing 2) Amount of the overhead budget that Engineering transferred to the Finishing Department. 3) Overhead rate of every production department 4) Amount of overhead that should be applied to every unit 23
