It started, completed, and sold only two jobs during March—Job P and Job Q. The following additional information is available for the company as a whole and for Jobs P and Q (all data and questions relate to the month of March):

Sweeten Company had no underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead costs during the month.

Required:

For questions 1-8, assume that Sweeten Company uses a plantwide predetermined overhead rate with machine-hours as the allocation base. For questions 9-15, assume that the company uses departmental predetermined overhead rates with machine-hours as the allocation base in both departments.

2. How much manufacturing overhead was applied to Job P and how much was applied to Job Q?

3.What was the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job P?

4.If Job P included 20 units, what was its unit product cost?

5.What was the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job Q?

6.If Job Q included 30 units, what was its unit product cost?

7.Assume that Sweeten Company used cost-plus pricing (and a markup percentage of 80% of total manufacturing cost) to establish selling prices for all of its jobs. What selling price would the company have established for Jobs P and Q? What are the selling prices for both jobs when stated on a per unit basis assuming 20 units were produced for Job P and 30 units were produced for Job Q?
