Hi-Tek produced and sold 60,000 units of B300 at a price of $20 per unit and 12,700 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:
Direct materials

The company created an activity-based costing system to evaluate the profitability of its products. Hi-Tek's ABC implementation team
concluded that $57,000 and $107,000 of the company's advertising expenses could be directly traced to B300 and T500, respectively.
The remainder of the selling and administrative expenses was organization-sustaining in nature. The ABC team also distributed the
company's manufacturing overhead to four activities as shown below:
Activity Cost Pool (and Activity Measure)
Machining (machine-hours)
Setups (setup hours)
Product-sustaining (number of products)
Other (organization-sustaining costs)
