Bauer Manufacturing uses departmental cost driver rates to allocate manufacturing overhead costs to products. Manufacturing overhead costs are allocated on the basis of machine-hours in the Machining Department and on the basis of direct labor-hours in the Assembly Department. At the beginning of 2018, the following estimates were provided for the coming year:

Machining Assembly
Direct labor-hours 40,000 40,000
Machine-hours 50,000 20,000
Direct labor costs $ 525,000 $ 875,000
Manufacturing overhead costs $ 280,000 $ 360,000

The accounting records of the company show the following data for Job #316:
Machining Assembly
Direct labor-hours 120 75
Machine-hours 45 5
Direct material cost $ 250 $ 125
Direct labor cost $ 300 $ 325

What amount of manufacturing overhead costs will be allocated to Job #316?

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Manufacturing overhead costs are allocated based on machine-hours in the Machining Department and based on direct labor-hours in the Assembly Department.

Machining:

Machine-hours= 50,000

Manufacturing overhead costs= $ 280,000

Assembly:

Direct labor-hours= 40,000

Manufacturing overhead costs= $ 360,000

First, we need to calculate the estimated overhead rate for each department:

To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Machining:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 280,000/50,000= $5.6 per machine hour

Assembly:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 360,000/40,000= $9 per direct labor hour

Now, we can allocate overhead to Job 316:

Machining Assembly

Direct labor-hours 120 75

Machine-hours 45 5

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Machining:

Allocated MOH= 5.6*45= $252

Assembly:

Allocated MOH= 9*75= $675
