The company uses a normal cost system and overhead costs are currently allocated using a plant-wide overhead rate based on direct labor hours. Outside cost consultants have recommended, however, that the company use activity-based costing to charge overhead to products. The company expects to produce 4,000 computer and 2,000 printers in 2015. Each computer part requires two direct labor hours to produce and each printer requires one-half hour to produce. The direct material and direct labor costs included in the two products are as follows: Item Direct Material (per unit) Direct Labor (per unit) Computer Part $ 300 $160 Printer part $170 $40 Budgeted (Estimated) Total Factory Overhead Data For 1999: Activity Production Setups Budgeted Overhead Dollars $ 80,000 Estimated Volume Level 20 setups $70,000 5,000 Ibs Packaging and Shipping $ 120,0000 6,000 boxes Total Factory Overhead $ 270,000 Material Handling Based on an analysis of the three overhead activities, it was estimated that the two products would require these activities as follows in 2015: Activity Production Setups Computer 5 setups Printer 15 setups Overall Totals 20 setups Material Handling 1,000 Ibs 4,000 Ibs 5,000 Ibs 4,000 boxes 2,000 boxes 6,000 boxes Packaging and Shipping Required: 1.
