Problem 48-6 Step-Down Method versus Direct Method; Predetermined Overhead Rates (L04-10, LO4. The Sendai Co., Ltd., of Japan has budgeted costs in its various departments as follows for the coming year. Tactory Administration Custodial Services Personnel Maintenance Machining-overhead Assembly-overhead Total cost $ 819,840 98,337 26, 358 170,555 1,126,484 618.226 $2,859,800 The company allocates service department costs to other departments in the order listed below.

Factory Administration is allocated based on labor-hours, Custodial Services based on square feet occupied; Personnel based on number of employees, and Maintenance based on machine-hours. Required: 1. Allocate service department costs to consuming departments by the step-down method. Then compute predetermined overhead rates in the operating departments using machine-hours as the allocation base in Machining and direct labor-hours as the allocation base in Assembly. 2. Repeat (1) above, this time using the direct method. Again compute predetermined overhead rates in Machining and Assembly 3. Assume that the company doesn't bother with allocating service department costs but simply computes a single plantwide overhead rate that divides the total overhead costs (both service department and operating department costs) by the total direct labor-hours. Compute the plantwide overhead rate. 4. Suppose a job requires machine and labor time as follows: Machine- Hours Direct Labor Hours 260 Machining Department Assembly Department Total hours Using the overhead rates computed in (1). (2), and (3) above, compute the amount of overhead cost that would be assigned to the job if the overhead rates were developed using the step-down method, the direct method, and the plantwide method.
