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 $217,500 of total manufacturing overhead for an estimated activity level of 87,000 machine-hours. Required: 1. Assume that during the year the company works only 82,000 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. Manufacturing overhead

Maintenance     $24,000

Indirect materials  8,300

Indirect labor      82,000

Utilities               36,000

Insurance             7,300

Applied overhead: WIP    $205,000

Underapplied overhead       17,600

Total costs   $222,600   $222,600

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Predetermined overhead rate per machine-hour = $2.50

Estimated total manufacturing overhead = $217,500

Estimated activity level = 87,000

Actual results from production during the year:

Machine-hours worked = 82,000

Applied overhead costs = $205,000 (82,000 * $2.50)

Total manufacturing costs incurred = $222,600

Underapplied overhead = $17,600

the investment was $14,174.196

explanation:

a lump sum means that the father of the example made one deposit and leave it be.

we need to know the value of a capital that generated at 4.05% per year during 28 years the sum of $48,613.24

now clearing the formula to solve for capital we got:

and we reach the answer investment = $14,174.20
