Answer:
(a) $90,180
(b) $94,560
Explanation:
Given that,
Sales in the first quarter = $201,000
Sales in the second quarter = $242,000
Variable overhead = 18% of sales
Fixed overhead costs = $54,000 per quarter
Budgeted manufacturing overhead for 1st Quarter:
= Variable overhead + Fixed overhead costs
= ($201,000 × 18%) + $54,000
= $36,180 + $54,000
= $90,180
Budgeted manufacturing overhead for 2nd Quarter:
= Variable overhead + Fixed overhead costs
= ($242,000 × 18%) + $54,000
= $43,560 + $51,000
= $94,560
