[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]

Delph Company uses a job-order costing system with a plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. At the beginning of the year, the company estimated that 50,000 machine-hours would be required for the periods estimated level of production. It also estimated $910,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead cost for the coming period and variable manufacturing overhead of $1.80 per machine-hour. Because Delph has two manufacturing departmentsMolding and Fabricationit is considering replacing its plantwide overhead rate with departmental rates that would also be based on machine-hours. The company gathered the following information to enable calculating departmental overhead rates:

	Molding	Fabrication	Total
Machine-hours	20,000	30,000	50,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead cost	$ 700,000	$ 210,000	$ 910,000
Variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour	$ 3.00	$ 1.00

During the year, the company had no beginning or ending inventories and it started, completed, and sold only two jobsJob D-70 and Job C-200. It provided the following information related to those two jobs:

Job D-70	Molding	Fabrication	Total
Direct materials cost	$ 375,000	$ 325,000	$ 700,000
Direct labor cost	$ 200,000	$ 160,000	$ 360,000
Machine-hours	14,000	6,000	20,000

Job C-200	Molding	Fabrication	Total
Direct materials cost	$ 300,000	$ 250,000	$ 550,000
Direct labor cost	$ 175,000	$ 225,000	$ 400,000
Machine-hours	6,000	24,000	30,000

Delph had no underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead during the year.

Required: 2. Assume Delph uses departmental predetermined overhead rates based on machine-hours.

a. Compute the departmental predetermined overhead rates.

b. Compute the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job D-70 and Job C-200.

c. If Delph establishes bid prices that are 150% of total manufacturing cost, what bid prices would it have established for Job D-70 and Job C-200?

d. What is Delphs cost of goods sold for the year?
