Budgeted production in a factory for next period is 4,800 units. Each unit requires five labour hours to make. Labour is paid $10 per hour. Idle time represents 20% of the total labour time.What is the budgeted total labour cost for the next period?

A

$192,000

B

$240,000

C

$288,000

D

$300,000

Chapter16Thebudgetaryprocess

Before you can work out the total cost, you have to determine how many labour hours are required. You can calculate the number of hours required for the units quite easily: 4,800 x 5 =24,000 hours. However 20% of labour time is idle, which means that 24,000 hours is only 80% of the total hours required to produce 4,800 units. Total hours = 24,000 x (100/80) = 30,000 hours.Total cost = 30,000 hours x $10 per hour = $300,000 (which is option D)

A cost centre had an overhead absorption rate of $4.25 per machine hour, based on a budgeted activity level of 12,400 machine hours.In the period covered by the budget, actual machine hours worked were 2% more than the budgeted hours and the actual overhead expenditure incurred in the cost centre was $56,389.What was the total over or under absorption of overheads in the cost centre for the period?

A

$1,054 over absorbed

B

$2,635 under absorbed

C

$3,689 over absorbed

D

$3,689 under absorbed
