Activity unit cost is different even though same machine hours per unit are used BECAUSE number of units are different and so number of machine hours used in total are also different. Moreover, the overhead are allocated here not only on the basis of machine hours but also by using other cost drivers.

Miramar Industries manufactures two products: A and B. The manufacturing operation involves three overhead activities—production setup, materials handling, and general factory activities. Miramar uses activity-based costing to allocate overhead to products. An activity analysis of the overhead revealed the following estimated costs and activity bases for these activities: Activity Cost Activity Base Production setup $250,000 Number of setups Material handling 150,000 Number of parts General overhead 80,000 Number of direct labor hours Each product's total activity in each of the...
