I am kind of confused why the cost per factory hour for both product A and B are the same? Since they are different so should they be costing differently per each factory hour?
Great lectures. May i ask you about example 1 and 2 on the fixed cost section. To calculate fixed cost you’re using A: 20,000 units; B: 10,000 units. Why are we using the max demand unit instead of optimum production plan unit? I am thinking we could use this number for example 1 are 19,000 and 10,000 units; example 2 are 20,000 and 8,000 units. Thank you.
The budgets will have been prepared before knowing about the limit on production. Therefore the overheads will have been absorbed assuming the produced to meet the full demand. Even though the actual production ends up being less, the total overheads will, of course, remain the same.

Appreciate your help and nice day!

They are both made in the same factory, and the costs are charged according to how many hours each unit spends in the factory.

I do actually explain this in the lecture.
The budgets will have been prepared before knowing about the limit on production. Therefore the overheads will have been absorbed assuming the produced to meet the full demand. Even though the actual production ends up being less, the total overheads will, of course, remain the same.
