Question
  1. Spielman Leather, Inc., produces three sizes of sports gloves: small, medium, and large. A glove pattern is first stenciled onto leather in the Pattern Department. The stenciled patterns are then sent to the Cut and Sew Department, where the glove is cut and sewed together. Spielman Leather uses the multiple production department factory overhead rate method of allocating factory overhead costs. Its factory overhead costs were budgeted as follows:

    Line Item Description Amount
    Pattern Department overhead $180,000
    Cut and Sew Department overhead 756,000
       Total $936,000

    The direct labor estimated for each production department was as follows:

    Line Item Description Amount
    Pattern Department 36,000 direct labor hours
    Cut and Sew Department   84,000
       Total 120,000 direct labor hours

    Direct labor hours are used to allocate the production department overhead to the products. The direct labor hours per unit for each product for each production department were obtained from the engineering records as follows:

    Production Departments Small Glove Medium Glove Large Glove
    Pattern Department 0.25 0.35 0.45
    Cut and Sew Department 0.40 0.55 0.70
    Direct labor hours per unit 0.65 0.90 1.15

    If required, round all per unit answers to the nearest cent.

    a.  Determine the two production department factory overhead rates.
    Pattern department fill in the blank 1 of 2$ per dlh
    Cut and Sew department fill in the blank 2 of 2$ per dlh

    b.  Use the two production department factory overhead rates to determine the factory overhead per unit for each product.

    Product Amount
    Small glove fill in the blank 1 of 3$ per unit
    Medium glove fill in the blank 2 of 3$ per unit
    Large glove fill in the blank 3 of 3$ per unit
