Harwood company uses a job-order costing system that applies overhead cost to jobs on the basis of machine-hours. the company's predetermined overhead rate of $2.50 per machine-hour was based on a cost formula that estimates $240,000 of total manufacturing overhead for an estimated activity level of 96,000 machine-hours. required: 1. assume that during the year the company works only 91,000 machine-hours and incurs the following costs in the manufacturing overhead and work in process accounts: compute the amount of overhead cost that would be applied to work in process for the year and make the entry in your t-accounts. 2a. compute the amount of underapplied or overapplied overhead for the year and show the balance in your manufacturing overhead t-account. 2b. prepare a journal entry to close the company's underapplied or overapplied overhead to cost of goods sold.

Suppose a firm faces a fixed price of output, 푝푝= 1200. the firm hires workers from a union at a daily wage, 푤푤, to produce output according to the production function 푞푞= 2퐸퐸12. there are 225 workers in the union. any union worker who does not work for this firm is guaranteed to find nonunion employment at a wage of $96 per day. a.what is the firm’s labor demand function? b.if the firm is allowed to choose 푤푤, but then the union decides how many workers to provide (up to 225) at that wage, what wage will the firm set? how many workers will the union provide? what is the firm’s output and profit? what is the total income of the 225 union workers? c.now suppose that the union sets the wage, but the firm decides how many workers to hire at that wage (up to 225). what wage will the union set to maximize the total income of all 225 workers? how many workers will the firm hire? what is the firm’s output and profit? what is the total income of the 225 union workers? [hint: to maximize total income of union, take the first order condition with respect to w and set equal to 0.]
