Greenwood Company manufactures two products—14,000 units of Product Y and 6,000 units of Product Z. The company uses a plantwide

overhead rate based on direct labor-hours. It is considering implementing an activity-based costing (ABC) system that allocates all of its manufacturing overhead to four cost pools. The following additional information is available for the company as a whole and for Products Y and Z:
Activity Cost Pool Activity Measure Estimated Overhead Cost Expected Activity
Machining Machine-hours $200,000 10,000 MHs
Machine setups Number of setups $100,000 200 setups
Production design Number of products $84,000 2 products
General factory Direct labor-hours $300,000 12,000 DLHs
Activity Measure Product Y Product Z
Machining 8,000 2,000
Number of setups 40 160
Number of products 1 1
Direct labor-hours 9,000 3,000

Answer:

Greenwood Company

1. Company's plantwide overhead rate = $57

2. Allocation of Manufacturing overhead based on plantwide overhead rate:

Product Y = $57 * 9,000 = $513,000

Product Z = $57 * 3,000 =  $171,000

3. Activity rate for the Machining activity cost pool = $20 per MHs.

4. Activity rate for the Machine Setups activity cost pool = $500 per setup.

5. Activity rate for the product Design activity cost pool = $42,000 per product.

6. Activity rate for the General Factory activity cost pool = $25

7. The batch-level activity = Machine setup

8. The product-level activity = Product Design

9. Using the ABC system, Manufacturing overhead cost assigned to Product Y = $447,000

10. Using the ABC system, Manufacturing overhead cost assigned to Product Z = $237,000

11. Using the plantwide overhead rate, the percentage of the total overhead costs allocated to product Y and Product Z is:

Product Y = 75% ($513,000/$684,000 * 100)

Product Z = 25% ($171,000/$684,000 * 100)

12. Using the ABC system, the percentage of the Machining costs assigned to Product Y and Product Z is:

Product Y = 80% ($160,000/$200,000 * 100)

Product Z = 20% ($40,000/$200,000 * 100)

13. Using the ABC system, the percentage of the Machine Setups cost assigned to Product Y and Product Z is:

Product Y = 20% ($20,000/$100,000 * 100)

Product Z = 80% ($80,000/$100,000 * 100)

14. Using the ABC system, what percentage of the product design cost assigned to Product Y and Product Z is:

Product Y = 50% ($42,000/$84,000 * 100)

Product Z = 50% ($42,000/$84,000 * 100)

15. Using the ABC system, what percentage of the General Factory cost assigned to Product Y and Product Z is:

Product Y = 75% ($225,000/$300,000 * 100)

Product Z = 25% ($75,000/$300,000 * 100)

Number of products               1                     1

Direct labor-hours          9,000            3,000

Plantwide overhead rate = Total overhead costs/direct labor-hours

= $684,000/12,000 = $57 per DLHs

Overhead Rate =

Vermeillen Corporation uses a standard costing system in which variable manufacturing overhead is assigned to production on the
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

1 ) Variable Overhead Rate Variance = ( SR - AR )* AH

                                                         = ( $21 - $20) 3,500

                                                        = $3,500 Favorable

2 ) Labor Rate =  ( SR - AR )* AH

                      =  ( $24 - $24.9) 2,290

                      =$2,061 U

Explanation:

TOTAL =  Standard cost - Incurred cost

Standard Cost = $70,000 + $4,550

                        = $74,550

Standard Rate = $74,550 / 3,550

                        = $21

cost incurred = AR * machine hours

cost per machine hour = $70,000/3,500

                                      =$20

2) Labor Rate =  ( SR - AR )* AH

                      =  ( $24 - $24.9) 2,290

                      =$2,061 U

AR = $57,021/2,290 = $24.9

AR = Actual Rate

SR = Standard Rate

AH = Actual hours

You are considering two mutually exclusive projects. Project A has cash flows of −$72,000, $21,400, $22,900, and $56,300 for Yea
gladu [14]

Answer:

Choose Project A whose payback is 2.492 years and therefore falls within the 2.5 year required payback period.

Explanation:

Project A    

Year   Cash-flow   Balance

0    (72,000)    (72,000)

1    21,400     (50,600)

2    22,900     (27,700)

3    56,300     28,600  

Payback = YearsWithNegativeCumulativeCashflowBalance + \frac{-LastNegativeBalance}{CashInflowfollowingYear}


= 2years + \frac{-(-27,700}{56300}=2.492 years

Project B      

Year  Cash-flow          Balance  

0    (81,000)    (81,000)

1    20,100     (60,900)

2    22,200     (38,700)

3    74,800     36,100  

Payback = YearsWithNegativeCumulativeCashflowBalance + \frac{-LastNegativeBalance}{CashInflowfollowingYear}


= 2years + \frac{-(-38,700}{74,800}=2.517 years

qwelly [4]

Answer:

This question lacks answers. Here they are:

A) ​Early adopter  

B) ​Early majority  

C) ​Innovator  

D) Late majority  

E) ​Laggard

Answer is B) <em>​Early majority  </em>

Explanation:

These are the adoption categories. They measure how inclined a customer is to adopting a new product or technology. Each category describes the main aim and goal of the customer when trying the new product.

Naturally, all categories are on the gradual scale:

Innovators -> Early adopter -> Early majority -> Late Majority - > Laggard

with the <em>innovator</em> being the group that is adopting the product immediately after launch, while the <em>laggard</em> is very change-resistant, rarely making choices regarding the adoption of something new.

The thinnest line is probably the difference between <em>early adopters</em> and the <em>early majority</em>. Early adopters are not as fast as innovators when it comes to product adopting and they are often doing it because of coolness or the "wow" factor of the product. Although the time of adoption for the early majority is the same or a little bit longer than early adopters, the key difference is that the early majority puts functionality over coolness when something is new and ready for adoption.

In this example, Ariana want to receive great functionalities for the given money, so she turns to ratings, reviews and recommendations from early adopters and innovators (Eric). Eventually, when it is determined that the product proves its value, the early majority adopts it.
