Question

Part A

Furniture Specialties is a company that make two types of dining tables: Simple and Futuristic. There are two types of direct materials: Pine and Mahogany woods. Direct manufacturing labour workers are hired on an hourly basis; no overtime is worked. In terms of manufacturing overhead costs, there are two manufacturing overhead cost pools and two cost drivers. The two manufacturing overhead cost pools are manufacturing operations overhead and machine setup overhead. The cost drivers for manufacturing overhead are: direct manufacturing labour-hours for manufacturing operations overhead cost and setup labour-hours for machine setup overhead cost. Nonmanufacturing costs consist of product design, marketing, and distribution costs.

The following data are available for the 2018 budget:

E. Direct Manufacturing Labour Cost budget (4 points)

Direct Materials Rate

Pine

$ 9 per meter square (m2)

Mahogany

$13 per meter square (m2)

Direct Manufacturing labour rate

$25 per hour

Explanation / Answer

Production of simple table = sales +ending inventory -beginning

        55000+12000-1000

          66000

Futuristic table :15000+500-500 =15000

Direct manufacturing labor cost budget simple Futuristic Total unit produced 66000 15000 Hours per unit 6 8 Total hours required for production 66000*6=396000 120000 516000 Rate per hour 25 Direct labor cost 12,900,000   [516000*25]
