Question
UCD Company uses a job costing accounting system for its production costs. A predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours is used to apply overhead to individual jobs. An estimate of overhead costs at different volumes was prepared for the current year as follows:
Direct labor hours ---- 31,000 40,700 50,100
Variable overhead costs ---- $341,000 $447,700 $551,100
Fixed overhead costs ---- 501,800 501,800 501,800
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total overhead ---- $842,800 $949,500 $1,052,900
The expected volume is 40,700 direct labor-hours for the entire year. The following information is for October, when jobs 1011 and 1015 were completed.
