Machine- Total Month Hours Overhead Cost April 70,000 $198,000 May June July 60,000 $174,000 80,000 $222,000 90,000 $246,000 Assume that the total overhead cost above consists of utilities, supervisory salaries, and maintenance. The breakdown of these costs at the 60,000 machine-hour level of activity is: Utilities (variable) Supervisory salaries (fixed) Maintenance (mixed) Total overhead cost $ 48,000 21,000 105,000 $ 174,000 Nova Company's management wants to break down the maintenance cost into its variable and fixed cost elements. Required: 1. Estimate how much of the $246,000 of overhead cost in July was maintenance cost. (Hint: to do this, it may be helpful to first determine how much of the $246,000 consisted of utilities and supervisory salaries. Think about the behavior of variable and fixed costs.) 2. Using the high-low method, estimate a cost formula for maintenance in the form Y = a + bx. 3. Express the company's total overhead cost in the form Y = a + bx. 4. What total overhead cost would you expect to be incurred at an activity level of 75,000 machine-hours? Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below.
