Notes:
1 Units Scrapped are those that are permanently lost during the production process. Typically due to damage or defect.
2 Quantity Per Item * Sales quantity + Units Scrapped.
3 Hours * Crew Size.
4 Man Hours * Cost Per DL Hour
5 In this example, overhead is applied on the basis of direct labor hours. This rate will be determined
during the budgeting phase. If actual overhead is above or below the applied amount for the year
then the difference must be reconciled in the financial statements.
