Problem $3-16($Algo$)$ Plantwide Predetermined Overhead Rates; Pricing $[$LO$3-1,$ LO$3-2,$ LO$3-3]$

Landen Corporation uses a job$-$order costing system. At the beginning of the year, theDuring the year, Job $550$ was started and completed. The following information is available with respect to this job:

Required:

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 $550?$

Assume that Landen's 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 $550?$

places and all other answers to the nearest whole dollar.$)$ company made the following estimates:

Direct labor$-$hours required to support estimated production $130,000$

Machine$-$hours required to support estimated production $65,000$

Fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ $364,000$

Variable manufacturing overhead cost per direct labor$-$hour $ $4\mathrm{.}00$

Variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine$-$hour $ $8\mathrm{.}00$

During the year, Job $550$ was started and completed. The following information is available with respect to this job:

Direct materials $ $253$

Direct labor cost $ $349$

Direct labor$-$hours $15$

Machine$-$hours $5$
