Hand Armour, Inc. produces three types of high performance sports gloves: small, medium, and large. A glove pattern is first stenciled onto leather in the Pattern Department. The stenciled patterns are then sent to the Cut and Sew Department, where the glove is cut and sewed together. Sports Glove uses the multiple production department factory overhead rate method of allocating factory overhead costs. Its factory overhead costs were budgeted as follows:
Pattern Department overhead...............................................288000
Cut and Sew Department overhead........................................412500
Total.............................................................................................700500
The direct labor estimated for each production department was as follows:
Pattern Department.............................................2,880 direct labor hours
Cut and Sew Department......................................3300
Total........................................................................6,180 direct labor hours
Direct labor hours are used to allocate the production department overhead to the products. The direct labor hours per unit for each product for each production department were obtained from the engineering records as follows:
