The greater the difference, the more secure a company can feel about hedging against possible declines in sales. The margin of safety can be expressed as a dollar amount, a percentage, or a number of units. The margin of safety is 70%, which gives the company a significant cushion over its breakeven point. The higher the margin of safety, and the more it exceeds the breakeven point, the better.

The percent increase (decrease) in sales is multiplied by the operating leverage to find the percent increase (decrease) in operating income. The higher the operating leverage, the more impact a change in sales will have on operating income. An increase of 20%, or $100,000, to $600,000 in sales would affect each of the two companies’ operating income as follows.

At the end of the lease period, the company could return the equipment to its manufacturer for $100 for scrap. The income from the four-year lease plus the scrap value is compared to the selling price minus the commission. Since selling the equipment will result in a $100 greater return, the company should sell the equipment.

If 300 direct labor hours are used for the two jobs as follows, total estimated factory overhead is $54,600. The journal entry to apply factory overhead of $54,600 to the jobs is as follows: Rather than direct labor hours, machine hours, percentage of direct labor, or other relevant activity base could be used to estimate factory overhead.

A factory overhead rate for each routinely-performed activity is calculated by dividing the total budgeted cost amount for the activity for a period by the budgeted activity base quantity over the same time frame.

Although the total factor...The department factory overhead rate is $155 per direct labor hour in the Cutting Department and $236 per direct labor hour in the Assembly Department, determined as follows. Although the total factory overhead applied, $54,600, is the same under both methods, the amount allocated to each job differs, as follows: Using departmental rates is more job-specific and therefore results in a more precise allocation of factory overhead to the jobs than the single rate.
