Hi-Tek Manufacturing, Inc., makes two types of industrial component parts-the 8300 and the T500. An absorption costing income statement for the most recent period is shown: Hi-Tek Manufacturing Inc. Income Statement Sales Cost of goods sold Gross margin Selling and administrative expenses Net operating loss Direct materials Direct labor $1,652,000 1,241,100 Hi-Tek produced and sold 60,000 units of 8300 at a price of $19 per unit and 12,800 units of T500 at a price of $40 per unit. The company's traditional cost system allocates manufacturing overhead to products using a plantwide overhead rate and direct labor dollars as the allocation base. Additional information relating to the company's two product lines is shown below: Manufacturing overhead Cost of goods sold 410,900 550,000 (139, 100) 8300 T500 Total $ 400,700 $162,200 $ 562,900 $ 120,700 $ 42,300 163,000 515,200 $1,241,100 The company has created an activity-based costing system to evaluate the profitability of its products.
