Exercise 9-48 (Algo) Activity-Based Costing: Cost Flows through T-Accounts (LO 9-5, 7)

Southwest Components recently switched to activity-based costing from the department allocation method. The Fabrication Department manager has estimated the following cost drivers and rates:

Activity Centers	Cost Drivers	Rate per Cost Driver Unit
Materials handling	Pounds of material handled	$	15	per pound
Quality inspections	Number of inspections	$	210	per inspection
Machine setups	Number of machine setups	$	2,600	per setup
Running machines	Number of machine-hours	$	22.00	per hour

Direct materials costs were $281,000 and direct labor costs were $131,000 during July, when the Fabrication Department handled 3,600 pounds of materials, made 760 inspections, had 50 setups, and ran the machines for 13,000 hours.

Required:

Use T-accounts to show the flow of materials, labor, and overhead costs from the four overhead activity centers through Work-in-Process Inventory and out to Finished Goods Inventory.
