The following data are available for a company that produces and sells a single product.

The company’s opening finished goods inventory was 2,500 units.

The fixed overhead absorption rate is $8.00 per unit.

The profit calculated using marginal costing is $16,000.

The profit calculated using absorption costing and valuing its inventory at standard cost is $22,400.

The company’s closing finished goods inventory is:

Refer to the Exhibit.

A company operates a batch costing system.

Production overhead costs are absorbed into the cost of batches using a direct labour hour rate. Other overhead costs are absorbed at a rate of 20% of total production cost. The company adds a mark-up of 10% to total cost in order to derive its selling prices.

Budgeted production overheads for the period are $44,000 and the budgeted level of activity is 8,800 direct labour hours.

The following data are available for batch number 309:

The required selling price per unit (to two decimal places) is:

Refer to the Exhibit.

AM Ltd. makes and sells a single product for which the standard cost information is as follows:

Budgeted production for the period is 30000 units.

The actual results for the period were as follows:

What is the variable overhead expenditure variance?

Refer to the exhibit.

The following data relates to two activity levels of a department. Overhead absorption is on the basis of machine hours.

The variable overhead rate per hour is £4.50. The amount of fixed overhead, to the nearest £000, is:

Refer to the exhibit.

SL manufactures a single product, the cost and selling price of which are given below:

Fixed overheads per unit are based on a budgeted production volume of 25,000 units.

Budgeted sales are assumed to be 25,000 units.

If all costs increase by 5% but selling price remains the same, by how much must sales change from the budgeted volume to achieve the same budgeted profit?

A company operates a full cost system of pricing. Production overheads are absorbed using a pre-determined absorption rate of £3.50 per machine hour. The direct production cost of product A is £15 per unit and it utilises 6 machine hours per unit. The mark-up for non-production costs is 10% of total production cost. The company wants to make a 25% return on sales revenue for all products.

The required selling price for Product A, to two decimal places, is:

A company manufactures three products using the same direct labour which will be in short supply next month. No inventories are held. Data for the three products are as follows:

The fixed costs are all committed costs and cannot now be altered for the next month.

Place the labels against the correct product to indicate the order of priority for manufacture that will maximise the profit for the next month.
