what is plantwide manufacturing overhead
No. Cost would include the cost of materials. Overhead would not.
Assume you have manufacturing overhead 5,000Journal Entry would be:Dr. Work in Process ---------5,000Cr. Manufacturing Overhead ----------5,000
I believe it would be classified as Manufacturing Overhead.
yes A cost that attaches to the physical units is termed a product cost. Product costs would include direct materials, direct manufacturing labor, and manufacturing overhead. Conversion cost is the cost involved in converting the direct materials into a finished product. It is composed of direct manufacturing labor and manufacturing overhead. Any cost that does not attach to the physical units would be termed a period cost and would be expensed as incurred. Therefore, a cost is either a period or a product cost. Electricity cost, whether variable or fixed, would be included in manufacturing overhead and classified as conversion costs, and therefore cannot be classified as a period cost.
To determine the overhead cost assigned to Product I90W using an activity-based costing (ABC) system, you would first need to identify the relevant activities associated with Product I90W and their respective cost drivers. Then, calculate the overhead rates for each activity by dividing the total cost of each activity by the total units of the cost driver. Finally, multiply the overhead rate by the number of units of each cost driver used by Product I90W to find the total overhead cost assigned to it. Without specific data, the exact cost cannot be calculated.

Well, honey, if manufacturing overhead is 20% of total conversion costs, and direct labor is $38,000 and direct materials are $47,000, then total conversion costs would be $38,000 + $47,000 = $85,000. So, if manufacturing overhead is 20% of that, it would be 0.20 x $85,000 = $17,000. So, the manufacturing overhead would be $17,000.

You add all the costs together that are related to the manufacturing process. An example of something included would be electricity for the manufacturing floor, something excluded would be CEO's auto allowance. You then divide by what your cost driver is...(machine hours, direct labor hours, etc..) that gives you an overhead cost per.
The total budgeted costs in an indirect-cost pool divided by the total budgeted quantity of cost-allocation base. For example: Manufacturing overhead = 900.000 and 25.000 machine hours. --> 900.000/25.000 = 36 dollar per machine hour

Overhead can be an adverb. But it can also be an adjective or noun. Planes flying "overhead" would be an adverb. Overhead wires would be an adjective. The overhead of a business would be a noun.

In a service organisation which uses job-order costing, the cost of inputs brought from outside (subcontracted work) is comparable to the cost of direct materials used in a manufacturing organisation. Similarly, the direct staff costs in a service organisation correspond with the direct labour costs in a manufacturing organisation. The office overhead expenses in a service organisation is similar to the manufacturing overhead in a manufacturing organisation. The cost of any completed work is simlar to the cost of finished goods inventory in a manufacturing organisation. Basically the names of the accounts used in a service organisation are different to those used in a manufacturing organisation. The work-in-process account in a service organisation would therefore have cost of subcontracted work, direct staff cost and office overhead cost on the debit side; the cost of completed work would be on the credit side. Other than the terminology, everything else in the flow of costs remains the same. The pre-determined overhead rate can be calculated by using an overhead allocation base such as direct staff costs and each completed job can be allocated with the appropriate portion of the estimated overhead based on the actual direct staff costs incurred on the project.
