Morton Company's budgeted variable manufacturing overhead is $2.50 per direct labor-hour and its budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $360,000 per year. The company manufactures a single product whose standard direct labor-hours per unit is 3.5 hours. The standard direct labor wage rate is $10 per hour. The standards also allow 2 feet of raw material per unit at a standard cost of $6 per foot. Although normal activity is 72,000 direct labor-hours each year, the company expects to operate at a 50,000-hour level of activity this year. Required: 1. Assume that the company chooses 50,000 direct labor-hours as the denominator level of activity. Compute the predetermined overhead rate, breaking it down into variable and fixed cost elements. 2. Assume that the company chooses 72,000 direct labor-hours as the denominator level of activity. Compute the predetermined overhead rate, breaking it down into variable and fixed cost elements. 3. Complete two standard cost cards for 50,000 & 72.000 DLHS. 4. Assume that the company actually produces 18,100 units and works 67,000 direct labor-hours during the year. Actual manufacturing overhead costs for the year are: Variable manufacturing overhead cost Fixed manufacturing overhead cost Total manufacturing overhead cost $ 169,300 369,400 $ 538,700 a. Compute the standard direct labor-hours allowed for this year's production. b. Complete the Manufacturing Overhead T-account below. Assume that the company uses 50,000 direct labor-hours (normal activity) as the denominator activity figure in computing predetermined overhead rates, as you have done in (1) above. c.
