Question not complete

Direct Labour Cost is missing

Direct Labor Cost ----- $50,000.00 $270,000.00

Answer:

a.

Overhead Rate (Cutting Department) = $5.5 per machine hour = $5.5 per machine hour

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = $12.2 per labour hour

b. Total Manufacturing Cost = $644

c. Yes

Explanation:

a. To determine the predetermined overhead rate appropriate for each department.

Given

Cutting Department

The Cutting Department calculates its rate based on machine-hours

Manufacturing Overhead Costs = $264,000

Machine Hours = 48,000

Finishing Department

For the Finishing Department, the rate is calculated based on direct labor-hours.

Manufacturing Overhead Costs = $366,000

Direct Labour Cost = $270,000

Overhead Rate (Cutting Department) = Manufacturing Overhead Cost/Machine Hours

Overhead Rate (Cutting Department) = $264,000/48,000

Overhead Rate (Cutting Department) = $5.5 per machine hour

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = Manufacturing Overhead Cost/Machine Hours

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = $366,000/$270,000

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = 1.36

Overhead Rate (Finishing Department) = 136% direct labour cost

b.

The Cutting Department's rate is based on machine-hours

Given

Machine hours = 80 machine hours

Overhead Rate = $5.5 per machine hours ------ This was calculated

The Finishing Department's calculations rely on direct labor-hours.

Given

Direct Labour Cost = 150

Overhead Rate = 136% of labor cost ------ This was deduced

Overhead Applied (Cutting Department) = 80 * 5.5

Overhead Applied = 440

Overhead Applied (Finishing Department) = 136% * 150

Overhead Applied = $204

Total Overhead Applied = $440 + $204

Total = $644

c. Yes

If the business utilizes a company-wide overhead rate linked to direct labor cost and if jobs have increased machine hours paired with lower labor costs, they would incur less overhead expenses.

Answer:

Net Present Value = $ 34,310.45  

Explanation:

The Net Present Value (NPV) represents the difference between the present value of cash inflows and outflows. A positive NPV indicates a favorable investment decision, while a negative value suggests otherwise.

NPV of a project

NPV = Present Value of Cash inflows - Present Value of Cash outflow  

The cash inflow is characterized as an annuity.

Present Value of annuity= A × 1 - (1+r)^(-n)/r  

A refers to Annual cash flow, - 65,000, r is the discount rate at 12%, and the term is 5 years.

Calculation for Present Value of cash inflow equals 65,000 × (1 - (1.12)^(-5)/0.12) =  234,310.45.

The initial investment is 200,000.

Thus, the Net Present Value calculation is  -  234,310.45  -200,000 = 34,310.45  

Net Present Value = $ 34,310.45
