Perdon Corporation manufactures safes—large mobile safes, and large walk-in stationary bank safes. As part of its annual budgeting process, Perdon is analyzing the profitability of its two products. Part of this analysis involves estimating the amount of overhead to be allocated to each product line. The information shown below relates to overhead.
Mobile Safes
Walk-in Safes
Units planned for production 200 50 Material moves per product line 300 200 Purchase orders per product line 450 350 Direct labor hours per product line 800 1,700
The total estimated manufacturing overhead was $276,000. Under traditional costing (which assigns overhead on the basis of direct labor hours), what amount of manufacturing overhead costs are assigned to: (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 12.25.)
The total estimated manufacturing overhead of $276,000 was
comprised of $172,000 for materials handling costs and $104,000 for
purchasing activity costs. Under activity-based costing (ABC):
(Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g.
12.25.)
What amount of materials handling costs are assigned to:
one mobil safe = --- per unit
one walk in safe = --- per unit
Solution
Activity Cost per unit | |
One mobile safe | $ 516.00 |
One walk in safe | $ 1,376.00 |
