The computations to arrive at the cost per direct material are shown below.
SUGARCANE
Cost per Ton 2,500
Tons ordered (year) 28.80
Total Cost of Sugarcane (year) 72,000
Layon ordered (year)
Layon per Ton 666.67
Tons ordered (year) x 28.80 19200
Cost per Layon 3.75
Ounces per Layon 72
Cost per Ounce 0.05
CALAMANSI
Cost per Pack 10
Ave. Contents per Pack 12
Cost per Calamansi 0.83
ICE
Cost per Bag (5 kilos) 16.00
Est. Tubes per Bag 50
Cost per Ice Tube 0.32
The following figures show the computation for the components of direct labor.
Commission
For each Php 1000 of sales, each sales staff receives a Php 50 commission. To arrive at the
commission per cup, the group determined that the computation below seems to be the most appropriate.
COMMISSION
Commission per 1000 sales 50.00
1000
Average Selling Price 30 33.33333
Commission per cup 1.50
Washers Salaries
To compute for the Direct labor for the washers, the number of layon was used as a basis. The
cost is treated as a joint cost.
WASHERS
Total Pay (8 months) 109,560.00
Total layon purchased 19200
DL per layon 5.71
Ounce per layon 72
DL per ounce 0.08
The total salaries of all the sales staff was used to compute for the Direct Labor per cup. This is
then divided by the total number of cups sold.
Manufacturing overhead costs include Rent and Utilities Expenses, Supplies Expense, and
Depreciation of the equipment used. The computation is as follows:
The group decided that the most logical way to arrive at the standard manufacturing overhead
cost per cup was to sum up all the expenses and distribute them evenly to all the cups sold during the
year. For further understanding of how the expenses were derived, a detailed computation of each
component of Manufacturing overhead is shown below.
To monitor the cost attributable to each branch, the group decided to allocate each expense to
their respective branches. This enables the business to see how well each branch sells and this also serves
as a guide to require each branch to reach a certain quota to recover the expenses incurred.
Supplies Expense
The following supplies are included in the manufacturing overhead since these are used in the site
of production (the branches).
