two-important-industries-on-the-island-of-bermuda-are-fishing-and-tourism-according-to-data-from-t-2

Two important industries on the island of Bermuda are fishing and tourism. According to data from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the Bermuda Department of Statistics, in 2009 the 306 registered fishermen in Bermuda caught 387 metric tons of marine fish. And the 2,719 people employed by hotels produced 554,400 hotel stays (measured by the number of visitor arrivals). Suppose that this production point is efficient in production. Assume also that the opportunity cost of 1 additional metric ton of fish is 2,000 hotel stays and that this opportunity cost is constant (the opportunity cost does not change). a. If all 306 registered fishermen were to be employed by hotels (in addition to the 2,719 people already working in hotels), how many hotel stays could Bermuda produce? b. If all 2,719 hotel employees were to become fishermen (in addition to the 306 fishermen already working in the fishing industry), how many metric tons of fish could Bermuda produce? c. Draw a production possibility frontier for Bermuda, with fish on the horizontal axis and hotel stays on the vertical axis, and label Bermuda's actual production point for the year 2009 .

Doaktown Products manufactures fishing equipment for recreational uses. The Miramichi plant produces the company’s two versions of a special reel used for river fishing. The two models are the M-008, a basic reel, and the M-123, a new and improved version. Cost accountants at company headquarters have prepared costs for the two reels for the most recent period. The plant manager is concerned. The cost report does not coincide with her intuition about the relative costs of the two models. She has asked you to review the cost accounting and help her prepare a response to headquarters. Manufacturing overhead is currently assigned to products based on their direct labor costs. For the most recent month, manufacturing overhead was $308,000. During that time, the company produced 13,500 units of the M-008 and 2,300 units of the M-123. The direct costs of production were as follows: M-008 M-123 Total Direct materials $ 108,000 $ 92,000 $ 200,000 Direct labor 108,000 46,000 154,000 Management determined that overhead costs are caused by three cost drivers. These drivers and their costs for last year were as follows: Activity Level Cost Driver Costs M-008 M-123 Total Number of machine-hours $ 124,500 1,000 9,000 10,000 Number of production runs 90,000 10 30 40 Number of inspections 93,500 25 45 70 Total overhead $ 308,000 Required: a. How much overhead will be assigned to each product if these three cost drivers are used to allocate overhead? What is the total cost per unit produced for each product? M-008 M-123 Total overhead Total unit cost b. How much of the overhead will be assigned to each product if direct labor cost is used to allocate overhead? What is the total cost per unit produced for each product? (Round "Total unit cost" to 2 decimal places.) M-008 M-123 Total overhead Total unit cost

Cooper Products uses standard costing. It allocates manufacturing overhead (both variable and fixed) to products on the basis of standard direct manufacturing labor-hours (DLH). The actual costs, compared with the annual budget and 1/12 of the annual budget, are as follows: Cooper Products develops its manufacturing overhead rate from the current annual budget. The manufacturing overhead budget for 2017 is based on budgeted output of 660,000 units, requiring 3,960,000 DLH. The company is able to schedule production uniformly throughout the year. A total of 76,000 output units requiring 320,000 DLH was produced during May 2017. Manufacturing overhead (MOH) costs incurred for May amounted to $331,900. Annual Manufacturing Overhead Budget 2017 Total Amount | Per Output Unit | Per DLH Input Unit | Monthly MOH Budget May 2017 | Actual MOH Costs for May 2017 Variable MOH Indirect manufacturing labor: $396,000 | $0.60 | $0.10 | $33,000 | $33,000 Supplies: 792,000 | 1.20 | 0.20 | 66,000 | 118,000 Fixed MOH Supervision: 554,400 | 0.84 | 0.14 | 46,200 | 44,000 Utilities: 673,200 | 1.02 | 0.17 | 56,100 | 61,000 Depreciation: 910,800 | 1.38 | 0.23 | 75,900 | 75,900 Total: $3,326,400 | $5.04 | $0.84 | $277,200 | $331,900 Requirement Calculate the following amounts for Cooper Products for May 2017: 1. Total manufacturing overhead costs allocated 2. Variable manufacturing overhead spending variance 3. Fixed manufacturing overhead spending variance 4. Variable manufacturing overhead efficiency variance 5. Production-volume variance Be sure to identify each variance as favorable (F) or unfavorable (U).

00:03 In this problem, we start out knowing that in 2009, the fishermen caught 387 tons of fish in bermuda, and the hotel workers produced 500 people, 4 ,400 hotel stays.
00:20 And the opportunity cost of a ton of fish is 2 ,000 hotel stays.
00:27 The easiest way to work this problem is to start with part c and set up our production.
00:33 Production possibilities graph.
00:40 And part c tells us to put fish on the horizontal and hotel stays on the vertical.
00:52 And we're measuring those hotel stays in thousands.
00:55 And we already know one point on our production possibilities curve.
01:00 The 554 ,400 hotel stays, and they're in thousands.
01:09 So we don't have to add all the zeros.
01:13 And we have 387 tons of fish.
01:18 So we know one point on the production possibilities...
