There was no work in process or finished goods on hand at the end of the last quarter. At the very beginning of this quarter, The Manager had purchased an additional 200 half-kegs, making a total of 1000 half-kegs to hold the product. Also purchased was a $12,000 machine to wash and sterilize the kegs. All equipment, including the half-kegs and the keg washing machine was depreciated on a straight line basis over 10 years with no salvage value.
The $12,000, one-year insurance policy that Uptown had prepaid remained in effect during the quarter. Ninety percent of the manager's time was still devoted directly to brewing ale, and the remainder was spent dealing with general and administrative duties.
You toured the warehouse and learned more about the brewing process, and about the stage that the product was in at the end of the quarter. To keep things straight in your mind, you made a chart of the entire process.
Dept.: | Boiling Department | Fermenting Department | Shipping Department | ||
Stage: | Stage 1 | Stage 2 | Stage 3 | Stage 4 | Stage 5 |
Activities: | - Add extract, Hops, water | - Add Yeast | - Ferment with Elec. | - Ship | |
- Remove Hops | - Remove Yeast | - Clean and Refill Kegs | |||
- Boil with gas | - Cool with Elec. | - Cool with Elec. | |||
Hrs. Spent: | (8 hrs.) | (16 hrs.) | (3 days) | (4 days) | (0 days) |
Elec. Spent: | (0% elec.) | (15% elec.) | (50% elec.) | (25% elec.) | (10% elec.) |
The manager estimated that about 30% of all labor was required for the Boiling operation, 60% for the Fermenting operation, and 10% for cleaning and refilling the half-kegs. All overhead items should be allocated based on direct labor cost. You noted that other than the keg washing machine, no additions had been made to the $130,000 worth of brewing equipment. At the end of the quarter you did an inventory, and found that the manager had one batch (12 barrels) that had just completed boiling and needed to have the hops strained out (virtually complete in the Boiling operation), and one batch in the middle of the Fermenting operation (the yeast had already been added). The recipe for each 12 barrel batch of Froth calls for 20 pounds of barley extract, ten pounds of wheat extract, one brick of yeast (each of which can be used in four batches), two bushels of hops, and 372 gallons of water. 96 half kegs (48 barrels) that had just been filled and stabilized were in the refrigerator ready to be sold.
