Example 1
 Production budget also provides the starting point
for preparing the direct labor cost budget.
 Example: Department 1 has a labor cost of $10
per hour. Product A uses 6 hours in Department 1
and Product B uses 4 hours. Department 2 has a
labor cost of $7 per hours. Production A uses 2
hours of Department 2’s labor and Product B uses
½ hour. Prepare a direct labor budget.
Example 1
Department 1 Department 2 Total
Product A (13,500 units)
6 hours per unit x 13,500 81,000
2 hours per unit x 13,500 27,000

Product B (23,600 units)


4 hours x 23,600 units 94,400
½ hour x 23,600 units 11,800
Total hours per department 175,400 38,800
Labor cost per hour X $10 X $7
Total $1,754,000 $271,600 $2,025,600
