Problem 6.12 (102) Activity-Based Costing The Cheesecake Shoppe is a national bakery that is known for its strawberry cheesecake. It makes 12 different kinds of cheesecake as well as many other types of bakery items. It has recently adopted an activity-based costing system to assign manufacturing overhead to products. The following data relate to its strawberry cheesecake and the ABC cost pools: Strawberry Cheesecake: $2 Annual production Direct materials per unit Direct labor per unit 19.500 units $10 Cost Pool Cost Materials ordering Materials inspection Equipment setup Quality control Other Cost Driver. $ 72,000 Number of purchase orders 75,000 Number of receiving reports 105,000 Number of setups 69,000 Number of inspections 100,000 Direct labor cost Total manufacturing overhead $421,000 Annual activity information related to cost drivers: Cost Pool Materials ordering Materials inspection Equipment setup Quality control Other All Products Strawberry Cheesecake 8,000 orders 100 375 receiving reports 60 3.000 setups 3.000 inspections 30 150 $2,000,000 direct labor $39,000 Required a. Calculate the overhead rate per unit of activity for each of the five cost pools. b. Calculate the total overhead assigned to the production of the strawberry cheesecake. c. Calculate the overhead cost per unit for the strawberry cheesecake. Round to three decimal places. d. Calculate the total unit cost for the strawberry cheesecake. Round to three decimal places. e. Suppose that the Cheesecake Shoppe allocates overhead by a traditional production volume-based method using direct labor dollars as the allocation base and one cost pool. Determine the overhead rate per direct labor dollar and the per unit overhead assigned to the strawberry cheesecake. Discuss the difference in cost allocations between the traditional method and the activity-based costing approach. Round to three decimal places.
