Collingsworth, Inc. produces 3 products: AKM, BWT, and CPQ. Product AKM requires 700 purchase orders, Product BWT requires 1,080 purchase orders, and Product CPQ requires 1,720 purchase orders. The company has identified an ordering and receiving activity cost pool with allocated overhead of $504,000 for which the cost driver is purchase orders. How much ordering and receiving overhead is assigned to Product AKM

Sagot :

Answer:

Allocated MOH= $100,800

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the predetermined allocation rate for ordering and receiving:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Ordering and receiving= 504,000 / (700 + 1,080 + 1,720)

Ordering and receiving= $144 per order

Now, we allocate to product AKM:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 144*700

Allocated MOH= $100,800
