Activities | Costs | Cost-drivers |
Labor Hours | $24,000 | 600 hours |
Gas | $1,800 | 500 gallons |
Invoices | $1,200 | 250 invoices |
Total costs | $27,000 |
Riley has three divisions. Each division uses different amount of the cost driving activities as described below.
Department | Lawn | Bush | Plowing | Total |
Labor hours (hours) | 370 | 220 | ? | 600 |
Gas (gallons) | 170 | ? | 70 | 500 |
Invoices (invoices) | ? | 40 | 70 | 250 |
If Riley allocates indirect costs to each division using the three cost pool above and three allocation rates how much of the 24,000 indirect costs driven by labor hours will be allocated to the lawn division?
