Document Summary

Prime cost = dm cost + dl cost. Conversion cost = dl cost + manufacturing overhead cost. There are two ways to dispose of over- or underapplied overhead. The more complex approach is to allocate a portion of the over- or underapplied overhead to work in process inventory, finished goods inventory, and cost of goods sold. The allocation would be based on the relative dollar value in each of the three accounts involved. An easier way to deal with the problem, and the method pearco uses, is to adjust cost of goods sold for the entire amount of the over- or underapplied overhead. To estimate profits at a particular sales volume. Simply multiply the number of units sold above break-even by the contribution margin per unit. Units sold = (fixed expense + profit) / cm per unit. Sales = (fixed expense + profit) / cm ratio.
