depatemen
2. Mengklasifikasikan tiap departemen sebagai
pendukung atau departemen produksi
3. Menelusuri semua biaya overhead perusahaan di
departemen pendukung atau departemen produksi

Budgeted Versus Actual Usage
Ketika kita kita mengalokasikan biaya
dept pendukung kedept produksi,
seharusnya kita mengalokasikan biaya
aktual atau biaya yang dianggarkan?

Memilih metode alokasi biaya
departemen pendukung
Ada tiga metode untuk mengalokasikan
biaya dept pendukung ke departemen
produksi:
The Direct Method (metode alokasi langsung)
The Sequential Method (metode alokasi berurutan)
The Reciprocal Method (metode alokasi timbal balik)

Departmental Overhead Rates

The overhead rate for the grinding department is computed

as follows (assuming the normal level of activity is 71,000
MH):
OH rate = $355,000 71,000 = $5 per MH
The overhead rate for the assembly department is computed
as follows (assuming the normal level of activity is 107,500
DLH):
OH rate = $215,000 107,500 = $2 per DLH
 7 -41

Product Unit Cost

A product requires two machine hours of
grinding per unit and one hour of assembly.

Overhead cost assigned:

2 x $5 $10
1 x $2 2
Total assigned $12
