Kiser Corporation has an activity-based costing system with three activity cost pools--Machining, Order Filling, and Other. In the first stage allocations, costs in the two overhead accounts, equipment depreciation and supervisory expense, are allocated to three activity cost pools based on resource consumption. Data used in the first stage allocations follow: Overhead costs: Equipment depreciation Supervisory expense Distribution of Resource Consumption Across Activity Cost Pools: ment depreciation Supervisory expense Product MO Product H2 Total Activity Cost Pools O $60,000 E O $800 O $10,400 O $9.600 0.30 Machining Order Filling 0.60 0.10 4,500 $ 96,000 0.10 Machining costs are assigned to products using machine-hours (MHs) and Order Filling costs are assigned to products using the number of orders. The costs in the Other activity cost pool are not assigned to products. Activity data for the company's two products follow: 5,500 $ 8,000 MHS (Machining) 10,000 400 Other 600 0.60 Orders (Order Filling) 1,000 0.30 How much overhead cost is allocated to the Order Filling activity cost pool under activity-based costing?

Mirabile Corporation uses activity-based costing to compute product margins. Overhead costs have already been allocated to the company's three activity cost pools--Processing, Supervising, and Other. The costs in those activity cost pools appear below: Processing Supervising Other Processing costs are assigned to products using machine-hours (MHs) and Supervising costs are assigned to products using the number of batches. The costs in the other activity cost pool are not assigned to products. Activity data appear below: Product MO Product M5 Total $ 3,800 $ 23,800 $ 10,400 MHs (Processing) 9,700 300 10,000 Sales (total) Direct materials (total) Direct labor (total) Batches (Supervising) 500 500 1,000 Finally, sales and direct cost data are combined with Processing and Supervising costs to determine product margins. Product Mº $ 74,100 $ 28,500 $ 27,800 Product M5 $ 89,900 $ 31,400 $ 41,700

Arial Company has two products: A and B. The company uses activity-based costing. The total cost and activity for each of the company's three activity cost pools are as follows: Total Activity Activity Cost Pool Total Cost Product A Product B Total Activity 1 $ 38,000 800 500 1,300 Activity 2 $ 29,040 780 600 1,380 Activity 3 $ 26,600 900 650 1,550 The activity rate under the activity-based costing system for Activity 3 is:
Doede Corporation uses activity-based costing to compute product margins. In the first stage, the activity-based costing system allocates two overhead accounts--equipment depreciation and supervisory expense--to three activity cost pools--Machining, Order Filling, and Other--based on resource consumption. Data to perform these allocations appear below: Overhead costs: Equipment depreciation $ 91,000 Supervisory expense $ 12,300 Distribution of Resource Consumption Across Activity Cost Pools: Activity Cost Pools Machining Order Filling Other Equipment depreciation 0.60 0.30 0.10 Supervisory expense 0.60 0.20 0.20 In the second stage, Machining costs are assigned to products using machine-hours (MHs) and Order Filling costs are assigned to products using the number of orders. The costs in the Other activity cost pool are not assigned to products. Activity: MHs (Machining) Orders (Order Filling) Product W1 6,050 198 Product M0 21,800 999 Total…

Activity-based costing (ABC) is a costing technique that uses a two-stage allocation process. Which of the following statements best describes these two stages? Multiple Choice Direct costs are allocated to the production departments based on a predetermined overhead rate. The costs are assigned to departments, and then to the products based upon their use of activity resources. The costs are assigned to activities, and then to the products based upon their use of the activities. Indirect costs are assigned to activities, and then to the products based upon the direct cost resources used by the activities.
Which of the following is the correct formula to compute the predetermined overhead rate? a. Estimated total manufacturing overhead costs divided by actual total units in the allocation base. b. Estimated total manufacturing overhead costs divided by estimated total units in the allocation base. C. Actual total manufacturing overhead costs divided by estimated total units in the allocation base. O d. Estimated total units in the allocation base divided by estimated total manufacturing overhead costs.
