To complete the case$-$study you will use the information we covered in

chapter $17$ Activity$-$Based Costing $($ABC$).$ The case$-$study requires

that you follow the correct steps to allocate overhead costs to Zauner

Ornament's three products: small glass ornaments, large glass

ornaments and specialty glass ornaments. Please prepare a report

designed to inform Zauner Ornament's management team about your

findings when comparing the products costed using ABC compared to

the traditional methods considered by the business. In doing so please

include the following:

Calculate the ABC costs for each product on a per$-$box basis. Use

the ending inventory costs as the cost driver to allocate the plant$-$

administrative overhead cost. All other overhead cost drivers are

explained in the case$-$study. Please prepare a table similar to those

used in chapter $17,$ showing the details of your overhead cost

allocations to each product. As shown in the chapter, the table should

include columns for the $1)$ activity cost pool, $2)$ cost driver, $3)$

estimated overhead $$,4)$ estimated use of cost driver per activity, $5)$

overhead rate by activity, $6)$ estimated use of cost driver by product,

and $7)$ total overhead allocated to each product by activity.
