Requirement 1: predetermined overhead rate( cutting department): $11.35 per MH and ( finishing department): $8.78 per DLH ****Requirement 2: I got wrong I put $2,766.44. Requirement 3: Yes

White Company has two departments, Cutting and Finishing. The company uses a job-order costing system and computes a predetermined overhead rate in each department. The Cutting Department bases its rate on machine-hours, and the Finishing Department bases its rate on direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the year, the company made the following estimates: Department Cutting Finishing Direct labor-hours 6, 300 78, 000 Machine-hours 51, 700 3, 700 Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 380 , 000 $ 471, 000 Variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour $ 4.00 Variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour $ 2.75 Required: 1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate for each department. 2. The job cost sheet for Job 203, which was started and completed during the year, showed the following: Department Cutting Finishing Direct labor-hours 5 18 Machine-hours 84 4 Direct materials $ 720 $ 360 Direct labor cost $ 125 $ 450 Using the predetermined overhead rates that you computed in requirement (1), compute the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job 203. 3. Would you expect substantially different amounts of overhead cost to be assigned to some jobs if the company used a plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours, rather than using departmental rates? x Answer is complete but not entirely correct
