Morgana company identifies three activities in its manufacturing process: machine setups, machining, and inspections. estimated annual overhead cost for each activity is $168,000, $315,900, an $97,200, respectively. the cost driver for each activity and the expected annual usage are number of setups 2,100, machine hours 24,300, and number of inspections 1,800. compute the overhead rate for each activity. machine setups $ per setup machining $ per machine hour inspections $ per inspection

Insurance companies have internal controls in place to protect assets, monitor the accuracy of accounting records and encourage operational efficiencies and adherence to policies. these internal controls are generally of two types: administrative controls and accounting controls. administrative controls are the policies and procedures that guide the daily actions of employees. accounting controls are the policies and procedures that delineate authorizations of financial transactions that are done, safeguard assets, and provide reports on the company’s financial status in a reliable and timely manner. internal controls should include both preventative and detective controls. the purpose of preventative controls is to stop problems and errors before they occur. detective controls identify problems after they have occurred. preventative controls are usually more effective at reducing problems, but they also tend to be more expensive. internal controls must be flexible to adjust for changes in laws and regulations in addition to adding new products or modifying current ones. companies must also do regular analyses to ensure that the benefits of implementing the controls are worth their costs. when concerned about paying unwarranted insurance claims which type of control would be useful?

Harwood company uses a job-order costing system that applies overhead cost to jobs on the basis of machine-hours. the company's predetermined overhead rate of $2.50 per machine-hour was based on a cost formula that estimates $240,000 of total manufacturing overhead for an estimated activity level of 96,000 machine-hours. required: 1. assume that during the year the company works only 91,000 machine-hours and incurs the following costs in the manufacturing overhead and work in process accounts: compute the amount of overhead cost that would be applied to work in process for the year and make the entry in your t-accounts. 2a. compute the amount of underapplied or overapplied overhead for the year and show the balance in your manufacturing overhead t-account. 2b. prepare a journal entry to close the company's underapplied or overapplied overhead to cost of goods sold.
