6. Enterprise #1 Unit sales and expected price Unit production and inventory Direct materials used Direct labor used Manufacturing overhead Examples of direct materials: Purchase of corn. Purchase of natural gas. Purchase of other inputs used in the ethanol production process. Examples of manufacturing overhead: Variable manufacturing overhead examples include utilities, repairs and maintenance. Fixed manufacturing overhead examples include property taxes, rent, insurance premiums, depreciation and legal and professional charges. Enterprise Budgets and The Master Budget

7. Use of ABC Accounting activities 1.Identify and classify activities and allocate overhead to cost pools. cost drivers 2.Identify cost drivers – correlation between driver and use. ABC rates 3.Calculate overhead rates or ABC rates. 4.Assign overhead costs to products – use of cost drivers. 5.Allocate overhead to individual products.

12. Example of ABC Accounting Step 1: calculate the ABC Overhead rate: Activity Cost Pool Process Driver AB overhead overhead activity rate Setting up machines$300,000 1,500 setups $200/setup Machining$500,000 50,000 hours $10/hour Inspecting$100,000 2,000 inspection $50/inspection Total$900,000 Divide the process overhead by level of driver activity to calculate the ABC overhead rate. Divide the process overhead by level of driver activity to calculate the ABC overhead rate.
