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 6,000 30,000 Machine-hours 48,000 5,000 Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 264,000 $366,000 Variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour $ 2.00 Variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour $ 4.00 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: Direct labor-hours Machine-hours Direct materials Direct labor cost Department Cutting Finishing 6 20 80 4 $ 500 $ 310 $ 108 $360 Using the predetermined overhead rates that you computed in requirement (1). compute the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job 203 3.
