Question

Cosgrove Company manufactures two products, Product K-7 and Product L-15. Product L-15 is of fairly recent origin, having been developed as an attempt to enter a market closely related to that of Product K-7. Product L-15 is the more complex of the two products, requiring 3 hours of direct labor time per unit to manufacture compared to 2 hour of direct labor time for Product K-7. Product L-15 is produced on an automated production line. Overhead currently is applied to the products on the basis of direct labor-hours. The company estimated it would incur $1,139,421 in manufacturing overhead costs and produce 15,000 units of Product L-15 and 75,000 units of Product K- 7 during the current year. Unit costs for materials and labor are: Product Produc K-7 L-15 $17 $24 $11 13 Direct material Direct labor Required a-1 Compute the predetermined overhead rate under the current method of allocation and.
