Required (show your work to receive partial credit): 1) Based on SDF's 2022 MOH cost data, what is your estimated monthly fixed MOH cost and variable MOH cost per machine hours respectively? What cost behavior did the SDF's 2022 MOH cost demonstrate? 2) What is your estimate of SDF's 2023 budgeted MOH based on 2022 incurred MOH data? Discuss two limitations of your estimate. 3) Determine the cost of jobs still in production reported on March 31 general ledger. 4) Assume SDF's budgeted MOH was $1,406,000, how much was the manufacturing overhead under- or overapplied for the first quarter of 2023? What would you recommend SDF to account for the amount? Why? How would it affect your profitability analysis of the Job no. 101? 5) Should SDF use its 2023 budgeted MOH cost or its 2022 incurred MOH cost as a benchmark to evaluate its managers' performance in controlling 2023 MOH cost variance? Why? 6) Can you recommend a better benchmark for MOH variance analysis and control? Explain a pros of your recommended benchmark.
