Direct labor-hours required to support estimated production 105,000 Machine-hours required to support estimated production 52,500 Fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 294,000 Variable manufacturing overhead cost per direct labor-hour $ 3.00 Variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour $ 6.00 During the year, Job 550 was started and completed. The following information is available with respect to this job: Direct materials $ 229 Direct labor cost $ 293 Direct labor-hours 15 Machine-hours 5 Required:

1. Assume that Landen has historically used a plantwide predetermined overhead rate with direct labor-hours as the allocation base. Under this approach:

a. Compute the plantwide predetermined overhead rate.

b. Compute the total manufacturing cost of Job 550. c. If Landen uses a markup percentage of 200% of its total manufacturing cost, what selling price would it establish for Job 550?

2. Assume that Landens controller believes that machine-hours is a better allocation base than direct labor-hours. Under this approach:

a. Compute the plantwide predetermined overhead rate.

b. Compute the total manufacturing cost of Job 550.

c. If Landen uses a markup percentage of 200% of its total manufacturing cost, what selling price would it establish for Job 550?
