Solution

a) To calculate the predetermined overhead rate based on direct labour hours, we need to divide the budgeted manufacturing overhead by the budgeted direct labour hours.

Predetermined Overhead Rate = Budgeted Manufacturing Overhead / Budgeted Direct Labour Hours Predetermined Overhead Rate = 150,000/50,000hoursPredeterminedOverheadRate=150,000 / 50,000 hours Predetermined Overhead Rate = 3 per direct labour hour

b) To calculate the unit product cost of each type of stereo unit, we need to add the prime cost per unit and the applied overhead per unit.

For the Deluxe stereo unit: Prime Cost per Unit = Total Prime Cost / Units Produced Prime Cost per Unit = 50,000/5,000unitsPrimeCostperUnit=50,000 / 5,000 units Prime Cost per Unit = 10

Applied Overhead per Unit = Predetermined Overhead Rate * Direct Labour Hours per Unit Applied Overhead per Unit = 3perhour(6,000hours/5,000units)AppliedOverheadperUnit=3 per hour * (6,000 hours / 5,000 units) Applied Overhead per Unit = 3.6

Unit Product Cost = Prime Cost per Unit + Applied Overhead per Unit Unit Product Cost = 10+10 + 3.6 Unit Product Cost = $13.6

For the Regular stereo unit: Prime Cost per Unit = Total Prime Cost / Units Produced Prime Cost per Unit = 320,000/50,000unitsPrimeCostperUnit=320,000 / 50,000 units Prime Cost per Unit = 6.4

Applied Overhead per Unit = Predetermined Overhead Rate * Direct Labour Hours per Unit Applied Overhead per Unit = 3perhour(48,000hours/50,000units)AppliedOverheadperUnit=3 per hour * (48,000 hours / 50,000 units) Applied Overhead per Unit = 2.88

Unit Product Cost = Prime Cost per Unit + Applied Overhead per Unit Unit Product Cost = 6.4+6.4 + 2.88 Unit Product Cost = $9.28
