$Answer

b. If the beginning finished goods inventory is an estimated 2,000 units and the desired ending inventory is 3,000 units, how many units should be produced?

Answer

c. What dollar amount of material should be purchased at $4 per pound if each unit of product requires 3 pounds and beginning and ending materials inventories should be 5,000 and 4,000 pounds, respectively?

$Answer

d. How much direct labor cost should be incurred if each unit produced requires 1.5 hours at an hourly rate of $11?

$Answer

e. How much manufacturing overhead should be incurred if fixed manufacturing overhead is $47,000 and variable manufacturing overhead is $2.50 per direct labor hour?

Explanation / Answer

Solution:

Collins Company

Estimated sales = number of units x unit sales price

Estimated sales for territory A = 10,000 units x $40 per unit = $400,000

Estimated sales for territory B = 10,000 units x $40 per unit = $400,000

Total budgeted sales revenue = estimated sales of territory A + estimated sales of territory B

                                                = $400,000 + $400,000 = $800,000

            Total budgeted sales revenue = $800,000

Beginning finished goods inventory = 2,000 units

Ending finished goods inventory = 3,000 units

Sales = 10,000 + 10,000 = 20,000 units

Number of units produced + beginning finished goods inventory – ending finished goods inventory = sales

Number of units produced = sales + ending finished goods inventory – beginning finished goods inventory

= 20,000 + 3,000 – 2,000 = 21,000

Hence, number of units produced = 21,000

1 unit = 3 pounds

Units to be produced = 21,000

Total pounds needed for production 21,000 x 3 = 63,000 pounds

Add: ending raw materials                                         4,000 pounds

Total materials required                                             67,000 pounds

Less: beginning raw materials                                   5,000 pounds

Materials to be purchased                                          62,000 pounds

Cost per pound                                                           $4

Total purchases = 62,000 X $4 =                               $248,000

1 unit = 1.5 hours

Number of hours needed for 21,000 units to be produced = 21,000 x 1.5 =31,500 hours

Direct labor cost per hour = $11

Estimated direct labor cost = 31,500 x $11 = $346,500

Total manufacturing overhead = fixed manufacturing overhead + variable manufacturing overhead

Fixed manufacturing overhead = $47,000

Variable manufacturing overhead = $2.50 per direct labor hour

Number of direct labor hours needed for production = 31,500

Total variable manufacturing overhead = 31,500 x $2.50 = $78,750

Total estimated manufacturing overhead = $47,000 + $78,750 = $125,750
