Problem

Yost Precision Machining makes two experimental couplings on job 2B47. Materials requisition 14873 draws two M46 housings at 124 and four G7 connectors at 103; two further requisitions add 506 and 238. Four time tickets record 5, 8, 4 and 10 direct labour hours at 9.00, 7.50, 5.25 and 5.40 per hour. Manufacturing overhead is applied at a predetermined rate of 320,000 / 40,000 = 8 per direct labour-hour. Complete the job cost sheet and find the cost per coupling.

Answers

  • Requisition 14873 = 248 + 412 = 660; direct materials of the job 1,404
  • Direct labour 27 hours, 180 (tickets 45 + 60 + 21 + 54)
  • Overhead applied 27 × 8 = 216 (120 % of direct labour gives the same); total job cost 1,800; unit cost 900, the price at which the two couplings are sold
