Answer:
If the company allocates all of its overhead based on direct labor hours using its traditional costing method, the overhead assigned to each unit of product X2 would be closet to: $ 1837.84
Explanation:
Mckenny, inc Manufacturers
Expected Direct labor Total direct
production hours per unit labor hours
Product P9 200 6.0 1,200
Product X2 100 5.0 500
Total direct labor hours 1,700
Expected Activity Activity Estimated
Activity Cost Pools Measures OH Cost
Product P9 labor related DLHs 1,200
Product X2 500
Total 1700 $45,084
Product P9 production orders Orders 600
Product X2 700
Total 1300 $119,964
Product P9 order size MHs 3,200
Product X2 2,900
Total 6,100 $459,818
Total Estimated Overheads $ 624866
If the company allocates all of its overhead based on direct labor hours using its traditional costing method we will calculate the overhead rate based on direct labor hours and then allocate it to each product as under.
Over head rate = Overhead costs/ No of DLH
Over head rate =$ 624866 /1700= $367.57 per Hour
Over head Costs for X2 = $ 367.57 * 500= $ 183784.12
Now we have to calculate the Overhead per unit for X2
No of units of X2 = 100 (given)
Overhead per unit= Total Overhead for X2/ No of Units
=$ 183784.12/100=$ 1837.84
