Electric Automotive Group is a maker of engines for high performance cars and uses a process costing system. The following information pertains to the final department of manufacturing for Electric's most popular engine, the "Atomic 8". Beginning work-in-process (40% completed) 526 units Transferred-in 1,690 units Normal spoilage Abnormal spoilage 145 units 145 units Good units transferred out 1,490 units Ending work-in-process (25% completed) Conversion costs in beginning inventory 436 units $ 189,500 $ 834,338 Current conversion costs Electric Automotive Group calculates separate costs of spoilage by computing both normal and abnormal spoiled units. Normal spoilage costs are reallocated to good units and abnormal spoilage costs are charged as a loss. The units of the Atomic 8 that are spoiled are the result of defects not discovered before inspection of finished units. Using the weighted-average method, answer the following question: What are the unit conversion costs?

Julio produces two types of calculator, standard and deluxe. The company is currently using a traditional costing system with machine hours as the cost driver but is considering a move to activity-based costing. In preparing for the possible switch, Julio has identified two cost pools: materials handling and setup. The collected data follow: Number of machine hours Number of material moves Number of setups Total estimated overhead costs are $332,860, of which $158,400 is assigned to the material handling cost pool and $174,460 is assigned to the setup cost pool. Required: 1. Calculate the overhead assigned to each product using the traditional cost system. 2. Calculate the overhead assigned to each product using ABC.
