Determine the single plantwide factory overhead rate. per processing hour Single Plantwide and Multiple Production Department Factory Overhead Rate Methods and Product Cost Distortion The management of Nova Industries Inc. manufactures gasoline and diesel engines through two production departments, Fabrication and Assembly. Management needs accurate product cost information in order to guide product strategy. Presently, the company uses a single plantwide factory overhead rate for allocating factory overhead to the two products. However, management is considering the multiple production department factory overhead rate method. The following factory overhead was budgeted for Nova: Fabrication Department factory overhead 1 $430,000 Assembly Department factory overhead 172,000 Total $602,000 Direct labor hours were estimated as follows: Fabrication Department 4,300 hours Assembly Department 4,300 Total 8,600 hours In addition, the direct labor hours (dlh) used to produce a unit of each product in each department were determined from engineering records, as follows: Production Departments Gasoline Engine Diesel Engine Fabrication Department 1.30 dlh 2.70 dlh Assembly Department 2.70 1.30 Direct labor hours per unit 4.00 dih 4.00 dih a.

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. Handy Leather 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 $112,700 Cut and Sew Department overhead 188,500 Total $301,200 The direct labor estimated for each production department was as follows: Pattern Department 2,300 direct labor hours Cut and Sew Department 2,900 Total 5,200 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: Production Departments Small Glove Medium Glove Large Glove Pattern Department 0.05 0.06 0.07 Cut and Sew Department 0.08 0.10 0.12 Direct labor hours per unit 0.13 0.16 0.19 If required, round all per unit answers to the nearest cent. a.
