The Foundational 15 (Algo) (LO2-1, LO2-2, LO2-3, LO2-4) [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.) Sweeten Company had no jobs in progress at the beginning of the year and no beginning inventories. It started, completed, and sold only two jobs during the year-Job P and Job Q. The company uses a plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that 4.000 machine-hours would be required for the period's estimated level of production. Sweeten also estimated $26,200 of fixed manufacturing overhead cost for the coming period and variable manufacturing overhead of $2.00 per machine-hour. Because Sweeten has two manufacturing departments-Molding and Fabrication-it is considering replacing its plantwide overhead rate with departmental rates that would also be based on machine-hours. The company gathered the following additional information to enable calculating departmental overhead rates: Molding Fabrication Total Estimated total machine-hours used Estimated total tixed manufacturing overhead 2,500 1,500 4,000 Estimated variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour $ 10,750 $ 15,450 $ 26, 200 $ 1.70 $ 2.50 The direct materials cost, direct labor cost, and machine-hours used for Jobs P and Q are as follows: Job P Jobo Direct materials $ 16,000 $ 9,500 Direct labor cost $ 23,400 $ 8,700 Actual machine-hours used Molding 2.000 Fabrication 1,100 900 1,200 Total 2,900 2,300 Sweeten Company had no overapplied or underapplied manufacturing overhead costs during the year. Required: For questions 1-8, assume that Sweeten Company uses a plantwide predetermined overhead rate with machine-hours as the allocation base. For questions, 9-15, assume that the company uses predetermined departmental overhead rates with machine-hours as the allocation base in both departments.
