WQT Co manufactures a single product and an extract from their flexed budget for production costs is as follows.

                                                                                                                       Activity level

                                                                                                                  80%                  90%

                                                                                                                    $                       $

Direct material                                                                                          2,400                  2,700

Labour                                                                                                      2,120                  2,160

                                                                                                                 8,580                  8,940

What would the total production cost allowance be in a budget flexed at the 83% level of activity? (to the nearest $)

A

$6,266

B

$6,888

C

$8,586

D

$8,688

Chapter15Budgeting

The total production cost allowance in a budget flexed at the 83% level of activity would be $8,688 (to the nearest $)

Direct material cost per 1% = $30

Labour and production overhead:

                                                                               $

At                     90%                activity                  6,240

At                     80%                activity                  6,180

Change           10%                                               60

Variable cost per 1% activity =$60/10% =$6

Substituting in 80% activity:

Fixed cost of labour and production overhead =$6,180-(80x$6)

                                                                          =$5,700

Flexed budget cost allowance:

                                                                                                              $

Direct material $30 x 83                                                                     2,490

Labour and production overhead:

                variable $6 x 83                                                                   498 

                 fixed                                                                                   5,700

                                                                                                            8,688
