The company is thinking of using a portion of their store space to sell ready-made sandwiches with ingredients from the store. The main components of the sandwiches are 100 grams of salami (meat), 1 slice of provolone (cheese) and one bun. The salami sells for $2 per 100 grams and costs the company $0.75 per 100 grams.

Tracy is unsure how much to charge for the cupcakes. When she was making the cupcakes by herself and only rented a small storefront that was only open on weekends, she calculated the cost per cupcake based on the cost of ingredients and she added 50% to that cost to cover all of her other expenses. She is not sure if that was accurate. Tracy has asked you to help her determine the cost per cupcake. She has given you her estimated total for each expense. She does not know how to allocate her overhead costs. She also knows that some of her costs are product costs and some are period costs. She has given you a list of costs and needs you to, first, determine which costs are period costs and which costs are product costs and, secondly, determine which are direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead. She believes that the best cost driver for the factory overhead costs to be the number of cupcakes baked and sold. Your assignment is to calculate the cost per cupcake and…
