OVERHEADS-II 28) ABC ltd has calculated a predetermined overhead rate of Rs 22 per machine hour for its Testing department. This rate has been calculated for the budgeted level of activity and is considered as appropriate for absorbing overheads. The following overhead expenditures at various activity levels had been estimated. Total overheads 3,38,875 3,47,625 3,56,375 Number of machine hours 14,500 15,500 16,500 IPCC Guess Questions May 2016 Costing (Problems) 15

16 You are required to: / 26 Calculate the variable overhead absorption rate per machine hour. Calculate the estimated total fixed overheads. Calculate the budgeted level of activity in machine hours. Calculate the amount of under/over-recovery of overheads if the actual machine hours were 15,850 and actual overheads were Rs 3,55, ) PQR manufacturers a small scale enterprise produces a single product and has adopted a policy to recover the production overheads of the factory by adopting a single blanket rate based on machine hours. The budgeted production overheads of the factory are Rs.10,08,000 and budgeted machine hours are 96,000. For a period of first six months of the financial year 2007, 2008 following information were extracted from the books: Actual production overheads Rs.6,79,000 Amount included in the production overheads: Paid as per court s order Rs.45,000 Expenses of previous year booked in current year Rs.10,000 Paid to workers for strike period under an award Rs.42,000 Obsolete stores written off Rs.18,000 Production and sales data of the concern for the first six months are as under: Production: Finished goods 22,000 units Works-in-progress (50% complete in every respect) 16,000 units Sale: Finished goods 18,000 units The actual machine hours worked during the period were 48,000 hours. It is revealed from the analysis of information that ¼ of the under-absorption was due to defective production policies and the balance was attributable to increase in costs. You are required: i) To determine the amount of under absorption of production overheads for the period, ii) To show the accounting treatment of under-absorption of production overheads, and iii) To apportion the unabsorbed overheads over the items. 30) A light engineering factory fabricates machine parts to customers.

After the close of each week, the factory levies a supplementary rate for the recovery of full overhead expenses on the basis of actual hours worked during the week. During the week ending 21st August, 2002, the total labour hours worked was 2,400 and Machine Nos. I and II had worked for 30 hours and 32 ½ hours respectively.

CAPITAL BUDGETING 6) Cello Limited is considering buying a new machine which would have a useful economic life of five years, at a cost of Rs.1,25,000 and a scrap value of Rs.30,000, with 80 percent of the cost being payable at the start of the project and 20 percent at the end of the first year. The machine would produce 50,000 units per annum of a new project with an estimated selling price of Rs.3 per unit. Direct costs would be Rs.1.75 per unit and annual fixed costs, including depreciation calculated on a straight-line basis, would be Rs.40,000 per annum. In the first year and the second year, special sales promotion expenditure, not included in the above costs, would be incurred, amounting to Rs.10,000 and Rs.15,000 respectively.

39 / 26 No.1 for CA/CMA & MEC/CEC If projects 1 and 2 are jointly undertaken, there will be no economies; the investments required and present values will simply be the sum of the parts. With projects 1 and 3, economies are possible in investment because one of the machines acquired can be used in both the production processes. The total investment required for projects 1 and 3 combined is Rs.4,40,000. If projects 2 and 3 are undertaken, there are economies to be achieved in marketing and producing the products but not in investment. The expected present value of future cash flows for projects 2 and 3 is Rs.6,20,000. If all the three projects are undertaken simultaneously, the economies noted will still hold. However, a Rs.1,25,000 extension on the plant will be necessary, as space is not available for all the three projects. Which project or projects should be chosen? 8) A company wants to invest in a machinery that would cost Rs.50,000 at the beginning of year 1. It is estimated that the net cash inflows from operations will be Rs.18,000 per annum for 3 years, if the company opts to service a part of the machine at the end of year 1 at Rs.10,000. In such a case, the scrap value at the end of year 3 will be Rs.12,500. However, if the company decides not to service the part, then it will have to be replaced at the end of year 2 at Rs.15,400. But in this case, the machine will work for the 4th year also and get operational cash inflow of Rs.18,000 for the 4th year. It will have to be scrapped at the end of year 4 at Rs.9,000. Assuming cost of capital at 10% and ignoring taxes, will you recommend the purchase of this machine based on the Net Present Value of its cash flows? If the supplier gives a discount of Rs.5,000 for purchase, what would be your decision? (The present value factors at the end of years 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 are respectively 1, , , , , and ). 9) APZ Limited is considering to select a machine between two machines 'A' and 'B'. The two machines have identical capacity, do exactly the same job, but designed differently. Machine 'A' costs Rs. 8,00,000, having useful life of three years. It costs Rs. 1,30,000 per year to run. Machine 'B' is an economy model costing Rs. 6,00,000, having useful life of two years. It costs Rs. 2,50,000 per year to run. The cash flows of machine 'A' and 'B' are real cash flows. The costs are forecasted in rupees of constant purchasing power. Ignore taxes. The opportunity cost of capital is 10%. Which machine would you recommend the company to buy? 10) Shiva Limited is planning its capital investment programme for next year. It has five projects all of which give a positive NPV at the company cut-off rate of 15 percent, the investment outflows and present values being as follows: Project Investment 15% Rs. 000 Rs. 000 A (50) 15.4 B (40) 18.7 C (25) 10.1 D (30) 11.2 E (35) 19.3 The company is limited to a capital spending of Rs.1,20,000.

It originally had a projected life of fifteen years and zero salvage value. A new machine will cost Rs.2,50,000 and result in a reduced operating cost of Rs.30,000 per year for the next nine years. The older machine could be sold for Rs.50,000. The new machine shall also be depreciated on a straight-line method on nine-year life with salvage value of Rs.25,000. The company's tax rate is 50% and cost of capital is 10%. Determine whether the old machine should be replaced.

The machine has a five year life with no residual value. The annual volume of production is estimated at 1,50,000 units, which can be sold at Rs. 6 per unit. Annual operating costs are estimated at Rs. 2,00,000 (excluding depreciation) at this output level. Fixed costs are estimated at Rs. 3 per unit for the same level of production. Nine Gems Ltd. has just come across another model called Machine-S capable of giving the same output at an annual operating cost of Rs. 1,80,000 (exclusive of depreciation). There will be no change in fixed costs. Capital cost of this machine is Rs. 2,50,000 and the estimated life is for five years with nil residual value. The company has an offer for sale of Machine-R at Rs. 1,00,000. But the cost of dismantling and removal will amount to Rs. 30,000. As the company has not yet commenced operations, it wants to sell Machine-R and purchase Machine-S.
