Comparison of OH per unit | Product A | Product B |

ABC method of OH allocation is more precise as it is assigned based on the actual consumtion of activities that consume the overhead | |||||
costs instead of Direct labor hour basis which has no direct realtion with overheads. | |||||
In real world , if we apply Overhead on the basis of single plantwide rate , there will be high chance of distorted production cost | |||||
due to unrealistic application of overhead based on arbitrary base. So products consuming less activities realted to overhead may | |||||
get high allocation of overhead due to high incidence of allocation base and vice vers. So cost of production and the setting of selling | |||||
price based on cost of production will be unrealistic. |
Selling Price by the given method would be | Product A | Product B |
Plantwide Rate | $ 12.50 | $ 12.50 |
Salling Price | $ 14.50 | $ 14.50 |
In this case, Product A will be overpriced and Product B will be underpriced as compared | ||
to their origfinal cost considering ABC costing method. | ||
So the demand of Product A will be less and demand of Product B will be very high. | ||
