Little League is considering the use of activity-based costing, although it currently uses traditional (simple) costing, (meaning it uses just one pool of overhead costs and one allocation base). Little League is doing some analysis at year-end to see which costing method is best. Little League incurred total overhead costs for the year of $615,000, with direct labor-hours as the only allocation base.
Using traditional costing, what is the total cost (direct materials, direct labor and indirect costs) of each Pro baseball glove?
