5.   The management of Digges Corporation would like to investigate the possibility of basing its predetermined overhead rate on activity at capacity. The Corporation’s controller has provided an example to illustrate how this new system would work. In this example, the allocation base is machine-hours and the estimated amount of the allocation base for the upcoming year is 51,000 machine-hours. In addition, capacity is 63,000 machine-hours and the actual level of activity for the year is 53,300 machine-hours. All of the manufacturing overhead is fixed and is $1,702,890 per year. For simplicity, it is assumed that this is the estimated manufacturing overhead for the year as well as the manufacturing overhead at capacity. It is further assumed that this is also the actual amount of manufacturing overhead for the year. If the Corporation bases its predetermined overhead rate on capacity, by how much was manufacturing overhead underapplied or overapplied?
 

   A. $76,797 Underapplied
   B. $262,191 Underapplied
   C. $262,191 Overapplied
   D. $76,797 Overapplied

 

 

 

6.   Electrical costs at one of Kantola Corporation’s factories are listed below:

  Machine-Hours Electrical Cost
February 3,570 $36,405
March 3,580 $36,493
April 3,553 $36,302
May 3,627 $36,833
June 3,625 $36,800
July 3,565 $36,366
August 3,548 $36,237
September 3,542 $36,213
October 3,593 $36,577

Management believes that electrical cost is a mixed cost that depends on machine-hours. Use the high-low method to estimate the variable and fixed components of this cost. Compute the variable component first, rounding off to the nearest whole cent. Then compute the fixed component, rounding off to the nearest whole dollar. What would these estimates be closest to?

9.   Adams Corporation makes two products: Product A and Product B. Annual production and sales are 500 units of Product A and 900 units of Product B. The company has traditionally used direct labor-hours as the basis for applying all manufacturing overhead to products. Product A requires 0.4 direct labor-hours per unit and Product B requires 0.5 direct labor-hours per unit. The total estimated overhead for next period is $67,522. The company is considering switching to an activity-based costing system for the purpose of computing unit product costs for external reports. The new activity-based costing system would have three overhead activity cost pools—Activity 1, Activity 2, and General Factory—with estimated overhead costs and expected activity as follows:
