3. Koontz's production manager has suggested using activity-based costing instead of either the plantwide or departmental approaches. To facilitate the necessary calculations, she assigned the company's total manufacturing overhead cost to five activity cost pools as follows: Manufacturing Activity Cost Pool Machining Assemble and pack Order processing Activity Measure Machine-hours in Molding Direct labor hours in Assemble and Pack Overhead 417,500 282,500 230,000 340,000 80,000 Number of customer orders Setups Other (unused capacity) Setup hours $1,350,000 She also determined that the average order size for the Basic and Advanced models is 400 units and 50 units, respectively. The molding machines require a setup for each order. One setup hour is required for each customer order of the Basic model and three hours are required to setup for an order of the Advanced model. The company pays a sales commissions of 5% for the Basic model and 10% for the Advanced model. Its traceable fixed advertising costs include $150,000 for the Basic model and $200,000 for the Advanced model. The remainder of the company's selling and administrative costs are organization-sustaining in nature. Using the additional information provided by the production manager, calculate: a. An activity rate for each activity cost pool. b. The total manufacturing overhead cost allocated to the Basic model and the Advanced model using the activity-based approach. c. The total selling and administrative cost traced to the Basic model and the Advanced model using the activity-based approach. 4. Using your activity-based cost assignments from requirement 3, prepare a contribution format segmented income statement that is adapted from Exhibit 4-8. (Hint: Organize all of the company's costs into three categories: variable expenses, traceable fixed expenses and common fixed expenses.) 5. Using your contribution format segmented income statement from requirement 4, calculate the break-even point in dollar sales for

Transcribed Image Text:Koontz Company manufactures two models of industrial components-a Basic model and an Advanced Model. The company
considers all of its manufacturing overhead costs to be fixed and it uses plantwide manufacturing overhead cost allocation based on
direct labor-hours. Koontz's controller prepared the segmented income statement that is shown below for the most recent year (he
allocated selling and administrative expenses to products based on sales dollars):
Basic

Direct laborers are paid $20 per hour. Direct materials cost $40 per unit for the Basic model and $60 per unit for the Advanced model.
Koontz is considering a change from plantwide overhead allocation to a departmental approach. The overhead costs in the company's
Molding Department would be allocated based on machine-hours and the overhead costs in its Assembly and Pack Department would
be allocated based on direct labor-hours. To enable further analysis, the controller gathered the following information:
Assemble

She also determined that the average order size for the Basic and Advanced models is 400 units and 50 units, respectively. The
molding machines require a setup for each order. One setup hour is required for each customer order of the Basic model and three
hours are required to setup for an order of the Advanced model.
The company pays a sales commissions of 5% for the Basic model and 10% for the Advanced model. Its traceable fixed advertising
costs include $150,000 for the Basic model and $200,000 for the Advanced model. The remainder of the company's selling and
administrative costs are organization-sustaining in nature.
Using the additional information provided by the production manager, calculate:
a. An activity rate for each activity cost pool.
b. The total manufacturing overhead cost allocated to the Basic model and the Advanced model using the activity-based approach.
c. The total selling and administrative cost traced to the Basic model and the Advanced model using the activity-based approach.
4. Using your activity-based cost assignments from requirement 3, prepare a contribution format segmented income statement that is
adapted from Exhibit 4-8. (Hint: Organize all of the company's costs into three categories: variable expenses, traceable fixed expenses,
and common fixed expenses.)
5. Using your contribution format segmented income statement from requirement 4, calculate the break-even point in dollar sales for
the Advanced model.
