Problem 3-16A Part 2

2.

Management is considering using activity-based costing to assign manufacturing overhead cost to products. The activity-based costing system would have the following four activity cost pools:

Activity Cost Pool Activity Measure Estimated Overhead Cost
Maintaining parts inventory Number of part types $ 225,000
Processing purchase orders Number of purchase orders 182,000
Quality control Number of tests run 45,000
Machine-related Machine-hours 460,000

$ 912,000

Expected Activity
Activity Measure

LEC 40

LEC 90

Total

Number of part types 600 900 1,500
Number of purchase orders 2,000 800 2,800
Number of tests run 500 1,750 2,250
Machine-hours 1,600 8,400 10,000

Determine the activity rate for each of the four activity cost pools. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Problem 3-16A Part 3

3. Using the activity rates you computed in part (2) above, do the following:

a.

Determine the per unit amount of manufacturing overhead cost that would be assigned to each product using the activity-based costing system. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

b. Compute the unit product cost of each product. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places)
