Question
A company has the following data for the year ended December 31, 2023:Budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead: 410,000Budgeted machine hours: 50,000 hoursActual machine hours: 52,000 hoursActual units sold: 48,000 unitsDetermine whether there is under or over-absorption of fixed manufacturing overhead and by how much.Question 5Answera.26,000 Under absorptionc.6,000 Over absorption
Solution
First, we need to calculate the fixed overhead rate per machine hour. This is done by dividing the budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead by the budgeted machine hours.
8 per machine hour
Next, we calculate the applied fixed manufacturing overhead, which is the fixed overhead rate per machine hour multiplied by the actual machine hours.
416,000
Now, we compare the applied fixed manufacturing overhead with the actual fixed manufacturing overhead.
410,000 (actual) = $6,000
Since the applied fixed manufacturing overhead is greater than the actual fixed manufacturing overhead, there is an over-absorption of fixed manufacturing overhead by $6,000.
So, the answer is d. $6,000 Over absorption.
