I was good at Accounting until chapter 5. It all went downhill from there.

Activity-based costing versus traditional overhead allocation methods. Woodruff Industries manufactures and sells custom-made coffee tables. Its job costing system was designed using an activity-based costing approach. Direct materials and direct labor costs are accumulated separately, along with information concerning three manufacturing overhead cost drivers (activities). Assume that the direct labor rate is $15 per hour and that there were no beginning inventories. The following information was available for 2004, based on an expected production level of 50,000 units

for the year:

Activity
Budgeted
Cost Driver Used
Cost

(Cost Driver)
Costs for 2004
as Allocation Base
Allocation Rate

Materials handling
$ 250,000
Number of parts used
$ 0.20 per part

Cutting and lathe work
1,750,000
Number of parts used
1.40 per part

Assembly and inspection
4,000,000
Direct labor hours
20.00 per hour


The following production, costs, and activities occurred during the month of July:


Units
Direct
Number
Direct

Produced
Materials Costs
of Parts Used
Labor Hours

3,200
$107,200
70,400
13,120



Required:

a. Calculate the total manufacturing cost and the cost per unit of the coffee tables produced during the month of July (using the activity-based costing approach).

b. Assume instead that Woodruff Industries applies manufacturing overhead on a direct labor hours basis (rather than using the activity-based costing system described above). Calculate the total manufacturing cost and the cost per unit of the coffee tables produced during the month of July. (Hint: You will need to calculate the predetermined overhead application rate using the total budgeted overhead costs for 2004.)

c. Compare the per unit cost figures calculated in parts (a) and (b) above. Which approach do you think provides better information for manufacturing managers? Explain your answer.

first thing you have to learn, is to line up the headings correctly ;)

Had the same problem in college. Really didn't want to take the fucking course anyway. Skipped half the classes. Still have bad dreams about forgetting where the class was held

Two tests - midterm and final - yikes!!! Got a D at the midterms, did an allnighter and Aced the final. Forgot everything by the second beer after exams.

When I got to the business world, all of sudden the numbers are much more real!! The interest level grew for the obvious. So later I started on an MBA. It's really not that complicated.

Suggest a tutor to bring you up to speed with everyone else so you can pass the class. Being lazy now, a tutor makes the most sense.

debits left credits right, or maybe it is the other way around.

Other answer is - drop the class, hire a CPA or buy QuickBooks & hire a clerk to enter everything

not sure. haven't had cost acctg in awhile. top of my head:

(15*13120)+(107200)+(70400*0.2)+(70400*1.4)+(13200 *20)=680,640

680,640/3200 = $212.70


(15*13120)+(107200)+(13120*20)=566,400; 566,400/3200= $177

i'll look into it tomorrow if i remember ok!

You might as well learn to do ABC costing now, or you're fucked on the exam...
