(1) Calculation of Manufacturing Overhead Rates:

The formula applied = Budgeted Cost of Activity/Total Budgeted Cost Driver

Material Handling = 100,000/1,000,000 = $0.10 per part

Cutting = 1,000,000/1,000,000 = $ 1 per part

Assembling = 3,000,000/150,000 = $20 per hour

Finishing = 60,000/20,000 = $3 per finished unit

2. Calculation of Manufacturing Overhead Cost applied to each product

Standard Unfinished A No. of Parts 30,000 36,000 B No. of Direct Labour Hours 3,000 2,800 C No. of finished units 2,000 3,000 D Material Handling (@0.10 per part) [(A*).0.10)] 3,000 3,600 E Cutting (@$1 per part) [1*(A)] 30,000 36,000 F Assembling (@$20 per labour hr) [(B)*20] 60,000 56,000 G Finishing (@$3 per unit) [(C)*3] 6,000 9,000 H Total Overhead Allocated [D+E+F+G] 99,000 104,600
