Chapter 05 Cost Estimation

1 The following manufacturing costs were incurred by the RST Company in 2011

Direct materials $112500 Direct labor 175000 Manufacturing overhead 235000

These costs were incurred to produce 25000 units of product Variable manufacturing overhead was 80 of the direct materials cost In 2012 the direct material and variable overhead costs per unit will increase by 15 but the direct labor costs per unit are not expected to change Fixed manufacturing costs are expected to increase by 75 Required (a) Prepare a cost estimate for an activity level of20000 units of product in 2012 (b) Determine the total product costs per unit for 2011 and 2012

(a) $482175 (b) 2011 unit cost $52250025000 = $2090 2012 unit cost $48217520000 = $2411

Feedback (a) Variable overhead costs (2011) = 80($112500) = $90000 Fixed overhead costs (2011) = $235000 - $90000 = $145000

The company is planning on operating at a level that would require 12000 direct labor hours per month in the upcoming year Required (a) Use the information from the regression analysis to write the cost estimation equation for the manufacturing overhead costs (b) Compute the estimated manufacturing overhead costs per month for the upcoming year

(a) Total manufacturing overhead costs = $14600 + ($1255 x Direct Labor Hours) (b) $165200

Feedback (b) Total manufacturing overhead costs = $14600 + ($1255)(12000) = $165200

4 A company ran a regression analysis using direct labor hours as the independent variable and manufacturing overhead costs as the dependent variable The results are summarized below

Intercept $14600 Slope $ 1255 Correlation coefficient 931 R-squared 867

The company is planning on operating at a level that would require 12000 direct labor hours per month in the upcoming year Required (a) Use the information from the regression analysis to write the cost estimation equation for the manufacturing overhead costs (b) Compute the estimated manufacturing overhead costs per month for the upcoming year

(a) Total manufacturing overhead costs = $14600 + ($1255 x Direct Labor Hours) (b) $165200

Feedback (b) Total manufacturing overhead costs = $14600 + ($1255)(12000) = $165200

(a) $447226 + $5329 x machine hours (b) yes the t-stat of 1l70 exceeds the rough rule of thumb of2 (c) $2045926

Feedback (c) $447226 + $5329 x 3000 = $2045926

7 The Ottawa Company has traditionally estimated manufacturing overhead costs using production volume Some of the production managers believe that the number of set ups may also have an impact on monthly manufacturing overhead costs In order to investigate this possibility the company collected information on their monthly manufacturing overhead costs production in units and number of setups for 2011

(a) $883356 (b) $864020 (c) The multiple regression improves the fit over the ordinary regression The r-square improves from 707 to 867 Additional information may include tests to determine the significance of the coefficients

Feedback (a) Total manufacturing costs = $650398 + ($31061 x 75000) = $883356 (b) Total manufacturing costs = [$464481 + ($25356 x 75000) + ($116316048 x 18)] = $864020
