Factory overhead rate

a. Pattern Department            

Factory overhead rate=Total Overhead Cost/Direct Labor Hours

Factory overhead rate= 140,700/2700

Factory overhead rate=67

Cut and sew Department

Factory overhead rate=231,400/2600

Factory overhead rate=89

b.  Factory overhead per unit

Pattern Department:      

Small glove=.04 x 67

Small glove=2.68    

   

Medium glove= .05 x 67

Medium glove=3.35

   

Large glove= .06 x 67

Large glove=4.02

Cut and sew Department:      

Small glove=.07 x 89

Small glove=6.23    

Medium glove=.09 x 89

medium, and large. A glove pattern is first stenciled onto leather in the Pattern Department. The stenciled patterns are then sent to the Cut and Sew Department, where the glove is cut and sewed together. Handy Leather uses the multiple production department factory overhead rate method of allocating factory overhead costs. Its factory overhead costs were budgeted as follows:

Pattern department Overhead                $140,700

Cut and sew Department overhead        $231,400

Total    $372100

Direct labor labor estimated for each department was as follows:

Pattern   Dept. -                       2100 direct labor hours

Cut and Sew Department      2600

Total                                          4700 direct labor hours

Direct labor hours are used to allocate the production department overhead to the products. The direct labor hours per unit for each product for each production department were obtained from the engineering records as follows:

Production Departments        Small Glove    Medium Glove          Large Glove

Pattern dept. 0.04         0.05                          0.06

cut and sew dept.                             0.07                 0.09                          0.11

direct labor hours per unit               0.11                   0.14                          0.17
