$48,014 Management believes that maintenance cost is a mixed cost that depends on
machine-hours. Use the high-low method to estimate the variable and fixed
components of this cost. Compute the variable component first and round off to the
nearest whole cent. Compute the fixed component second and round off to the
nearest whole dollar. These estimates would be closest to:
a. $8.86 per machine-hour; $20,577 per month
b. $0.11 per machine-hour; $48,192 per month
c. $15.48 per machine-hour; $48,103 per month
d. $8.81 per machine-hour; $20,718 per month 6. Very Bigly Company bases its predetermined overhead rate on the estimated machine-hours for the upcoming year. At the beginning of the most recently

$6.82 per machine-hour and the estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead was
$230,200. The predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year was
closest to:
a. $29.84 per machine-hour
b. $23.15 per machine-hour
c. $23.02 per machine-hour
d. $6.82 per machine-hour 7. Smitty Inc., applies manufacturing overhead to jobs on the basis of direct laborhours. The following information relates to Smitty Inc., for last year: What was Brusveen’s underapplied or overapplied overhead for last year?

machine-hours were worked on the job. The direct labor wage rate is $13 per laborhour. The Corporation applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of machinehours. The predetermined overhead rate is $14 per machine-hour. The total cost for
the job on its job cost sheet would be:
a. $3,259
b. $2,741
c. $4,715
d. $2,287 9. Warila Inc. has provided the following data for the month of September. There were no beginning inventories; consequently, the direct materials, direct labor, and

among work in process, finished goods, and cost of goods sold at the end of the
month on the basis of the manufacturing overhead applied during the month in those
accounts.
The work in process inventory at the end of September after allocation of any
underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead for the month is closest to:
