Accounting

Greg Powers is employed by Gussie Company, where he assembles a component part for one of the company's products. Greg is paid $20 per hour for regular time, and he is paid time and a half (i.e., $30 per hour) for all work in excess of 40 hours per week.

1.Assume that during a given week Greg is idle for four hours due to machine breakdowns and that he is idle for three more hours due to material shortages. No overtime is recorded for the week. Allocate Greg's wages for the week between direct labour cost and manufacturing overhead cost.

I know direct labor is 660

Manufacturing overhead is 140

Total is 800

2.Assume that during a following week Greg works a total of 48 hours. He has no idle time for the week. Allocate Greg's wages for the week between direct labour cost and manufacturing overhead cost. The cause of the overtime is peak production.

Is there manufacturing overhead here?
