1. The document contains multiple overhead costing problems involving applied overhead, predetermined overhead rates, allocation of overhead costs, and overhead variances. 2. Problem 1 compares actual and applied overhead and finds an underapplied amount. Problem 2 calculates variable, fixed, and expected overhead rates. 3. Problems 3 and 4 allocate overhead costs between cost objects using high-low analysis, direct allocation, and simultaneous equations. 4. Problem 5 calculates variable, fixed, idle capacity, and total overhead variances.

Problem 1

1. Applied overhead- 250,000/2000


=125
= 125 x 1,700 hours
= 212 500

2. Actual overhead – 221 000


3. Applied overhead – 212,500
Actual Overhead – 221,000
Underapplied Overhead - (8,500)

Problem 2
1. Predetermined variable OH rate.
Change∈variable factory overhead
Variable overhead rate =
Change∈Machine hours
($ 1,875,000−$ 1,250,000)
=
(150,000−100,000) Machine hours
$ 625,000
=
50,000
= $12.50 per machine hours
2. Predetermined fixed OH rate using practical capacity.
¿ factory overhead
Fixed overhead rate =
Practical capacity Machine hours
$ 1,440,000
=
180,000
= $8 per machine hours
3. Predetermined fixed OH rate using expected capacity.
¿ factory overhead
Fixed overhead rate = 2
of Practical capacity Machine hours
3
$ 1,440,000
= 2
x 180,000
3
= $12 per machine hours

4. Variable overhead applied


Variable overhead= machine hours x variable overhead rate
= 111,000 machine hours x $12.50 per machine hours
= $1,375,000 – variable overhead applied during 2016
5. Fixed overhead applied- practical capacity
Fixed overhead= machine hours x fixed overhead rate under practical capacity
= 111,000 machine hours x $8 per machine hours
= $888,000 – fixed overhead applied (practical capacity) during 2016
6. Fixed overhead applied- expected capacity
Fixed overhead= machine hours x fixed overhead rate under practical capacity
= 111,000 machine hours x $ 12 per machine hours
= $1,332,000 – fixed overhead applied (expected capacity) during 2016

7. Applied Fixed Overhead (practical) - $ 880,000


Actual Fixed Overhead - $ 2,710,000
Underapplied Fixed Overhead (practical) - ($ 1,830,000)

8. Applied Fixed Overhead (expected) - $ 1,332,000


Actual Fixed Overhead - $ 2,710,000
Underapplied Fixed Overhead (expected) - ($ 1,378,000)
Problem 3
1. High-Low Method: Formula y = a + bx
Y= Total Cost a=fixed cost b= variable cost
X= kWhs
a. Variable component
= (7200-4000)/ (220-120)
= 3200/100
= 32 per kWhs

b. Fixed component
a=y-bx
a= 7200 – 32 (220)
a= $ 160 per month

2. y = 160 + 32x

y = 160+ 32(135)

y = $ 4,336

3. y= a+bx
5280= 160 + 32x
5280- 160=32x
5120= 32x
32 32
160= x
