Bevard Nuptial Bakery makes very elaborate wedding cakes to order. The company has an activity-based costing system with three activity cost pools. The activity rate for the Size-Related activity cost pool is $0.84 per guest. (The greater the number of guests, the larger the cake.) The activity rate for the Complexity-Related cost pool is $35.91 per tier. (Cakes with more tiers are more complex.) Finally, the activity rate for the Order-Related activity cost pool is $82.41 per order. (Each wedding involves one order for a cake.) The activity rates include the costs of raw ingredients such as flour, sugar, eggs, and shortening. The activity rates do not include the costs of purchased decorations such as miniature statues and wedding bells, which are accounted for separately.

Data concerning two recent orders appear below:

Euertz
Wedding

Sparacio
Wedding

  Number of reception guests

70            

200            

  Number of tiers on the cake

9            

6            

  Cost of purchased decorations for cake

$16.25            

$73.45            

Assuming that all of the costs listed above are avoidable costs in the event that an order is turned down, what amount would the company have to charge for the Euertz wedding cake to just break even?

$532.24

$16.25

Explanation / Answer

16)

Cash disbursements for selling and administrative expense on the April = variable selling and administrative expense per unit*budgeted unit sales + budgeted fixed selling and administrative expense - depreciation

Cash disbursements for selling and administrative expense on the April = 3.60*3100 + 35810 - 4600

Cash disbursements for selling and administrative expense on the April = $ 42,370

Answer

42,370

Amount would the company have to charge for the Euertz wedding cake to just break even = Cost of purchased decorations for cake + Size-Related activity cost + Complexity-Related cost + Order-Related activity cost

Amount would the company have to charge for the Euertz wedding cake to just break even = 16.25 + 0.84*70 + 35.91*9 + 82.41*1

Amount would the company have to charge for the Euertz wedding cake to just break even = 480.65

Answer

480.65

The activity variance for administrative expenses = Administrative expenses as per Fixed Budget - Administrative expenses as per Planning Budget

The activity variance for administrative expenses =(7000+0.3*4270)- (7000+0.3*4200)

The activity variance for administrative expenses = 21 Unfavorable

Answer

$21 U

Budgeted Production Unit = Budgeted Sale + Ending inventory - beginning inventory

Budgeted Production Unit = 34000+140-560

Budgeted Production Unit = 33580

Budgeted direct labor costs for June = Budgeted Production Unit*Standard hour * Standard rate

Budgeted direct labor costs for June = 33580*3.5 * 14

Budgeted direct labor costs for June = 1,645,420

Answer

1,645,420
