Jameson's Fine Furnishings manufactures upscale custom furniture. Jameson's currently uses a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor hours to allocate its $1,170,000 of manufacturing overhead to individual jobs. However, Diedra Johnson, owner and CEO, is considering refining the company's costing system by using departmental overhead rates. Currently, the Machining Department incurs $735,000 of manufacturing overhead while the Finishing Department incurs $435,000 of manufacturing overhead. Diedra has identified machine hours (MH) as the primary manufacturing overhead cost driver in the Machining Department and direct labor (DL) hours as the primary cost driver in the Finishing Department (Click the icon to view the job information.) Read the requirements. More Info partmental overhead rates are used. (Round your Use the following table to answers to the nearest wh The Jameson's plant completed Jobs 450 and 455 on May 15. Both jobs incurred a total of 7 DL hours throughout the entire production process. Job 450 incurred 1 MH in the Machining Department and 6 DL hours in the Finishing Department (the other DL hour occurred in the Machining Department). Job 455 incurred 6 MH in the Machining Department and 5 DL hours in the Finishing Department (the other two DL hours occurred in the Machining Department).
