situations where a homogeneous product is produced on a continuous basis. 4-2 Job-order and processing costing are similar in the following ways: 1. Job-order costing and process costing have the same basic purposes—to assign materials‚ labor‚ and overhead cost to products and to provide a mechanism for computing unit product costs. 2. Both systems use the same basic manufacturing accounts. 3. Costs flow through the accounts in basically the same way in both systems. 4-3 Cost accumulation is simpler

Related to Problem 1‚ compute the average markup percentage for setting prices as a percentage of the full cost of the product. Student Answer: Direct materials $60‚000 Direct manufacturing labor $40‚000 Factory overhead-variable $30‚000 Factory overhead-Fixed $50‚000 Selling and administrative expenses-variable $20‚000 Selling and administrative expenses-Fixed $30‚000 Full cost of the product $230‚000 Sales = $300‚000 Profit = $300‚00 - $230‚000 = $70‚000 Average markup percentage = 70‚000/230

Full Cost Pricing Selling price arrived at by adding overheads and profit margin to the direct cost per unit of a product. In a manufacturer’s overheads computation‚ less than full capacity utilization of the plant is factored in to allow for fluctuations in the output. The profit margin is computed as a fixed percentage of the average total cost of the product. Pricing - full cost-plus pricing Full cost plus pricing seeks to set a price that takes into account all relevant costs of production

Given some of the apparent problems with Sippican’s cost system‚ should executives abandon overhead assignment to products entirely and adopt a contribution margin approach in which manufacturing overhead is treated as a period expense? Why or why not? Answer: Consider Sippican is a manufacturer company with multiple products‚ using simple cost accounting system that directly allocate factory overhead to unit of product entirely through one single allocation base (i.e. 185 % of production run
