Question
Ramsey Company produces speakers (Model A and Model B). Ramsey’s controller, Mr. Jacks, is evaluating the different methods of allocating manufacturing overhead to the products. Both products pass through two producing departments. Model A’s production is much more labor-intensive than that of Model B. Model B is also more popular of the two speakers. The following data have been gathered for the two products. (use direct labor hours for the plant-wide MOH rate)

Explanation / Answer
Calculation of Plant wide overhead rate:
Plant overhead rate = Total overhead ÷ Total labor hours
= $660,000 ÷ 440,000 hrs
= $1.5 per labor hour
Calculation of Product cost per:
$210,000
(140,000 labor hrs x $1.5 per labor hour)
$450,000
(300,000 labor hrs x $1.5 per labor hour)
e. Product cost per unit =
c ÷ d
$30
($600,000 ÷ 20,000 units)
$30
($6,000,000 ÷ 200,000 units)
g. Gross profit per unit =
f - e
Hope this is useful and thank you!!!!!!!
Product A Product B a. Prime cost $100,000 $1,000,000 b. Manufacturing overhead
$210,000
(140,000 labor hrs x $1.5 per labor hour)
$450,000
(300,000 labor hrs x $1.5 per labor hour)
c. Total cost = a + b $310,000 $1,450,000 d. Total number of products manufactured 20,000 units 200,000 unitse. Product cost per unit =
c ÷ d
$15.50 $7.25 f. Sales revenue per unit$30
($600,000 ÷ 20,000 units)
$30
($6,000,000 ÷ 200,000 units)
g. Gross profit per unit =
f - e
