If the activities causing overhead costs are different across different departments and products, use of a single plantwide factory overhead rate will cause distorted product costs.

If the budgeted factory overhead cost is $460,000, the budgeted direct labor hours are 80,000, and the actual direct labor hours are 6,700 for the month, the amount of factory overhead to be allocated is $38,525 (if the allocation is based on direct labor hours using a single plantwide rate).

Multiple production department factory overhead rates are less accurate than are plantwide factory overhead rates.

Match the following specific health coverage programs with the countries they were implemented in:

The use of a single plantwide factory overhead rate prevents product cost distortions when there are differences in the factory overhead rates across different production departments.

Multiple production department factory overhead rates are most useful when production departments significantly differ in their manufacturing processes.

Zorn Co. budgeted $600,000 of factory overhead cost for the coming year. Its plantwide allocation base, machine hours, is budgeted at 100,000 hours. Budgeted units to be produced are 200,000 units. Zorn’s plantwide factory overhead rate is $3 per hour.
