Rocky Mountain Corporation makes two types of hiking boots—Xactive and Pathbreaker. Data concerning these two product lines appear below:
| Xactive | Pathbreaker | |||||
| Direct materials per unit | $ | 64.70 | $ | 50.90 | ||
| Direct labor cost per unit | $ | 18.10 | $ | 12.90 | ||
| Direct labor-hours per unit | 1.4 | DLHs | 1 | DLHs | ||
| Estimated annual production and sales | 24,000 | units | 74,000 | units | ||
The company has a conventional costing system in which manufacturing
| Estimated total manufacturing overhead | $2,141,240 | |
| Estimated total direct labor-hours | 107,600 | DLHs |
Required:
1-a. Compute the predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours.
1-b. Using the predetermined overhead rate and other data from the problem, determine the unit product cost of each product.
2. The company is considering replacing its conventional costing system with an activity-based costing system that would assign its manufacturing overhead to the following four activity cost pools:
| Estimated Overhead Cost | Expected Activity | |||||||||
| Activity Cost Pools and Activity Measures | Xactive | Pathbreaker | Total | |||||||
| Supporting direct labor (direct labor-hours) | $ | 774,720 | 33,600 | 74,000 | 107,600 | |||||
| Batch setups (setups) | 643,500 | 245 | 145 | 390 | ||||||
| Product sustaining (number of products) | 652,460 | 1 | 1 | 2 | ||||||
| General factory (machine-hours) | 70,560 | 2,400 | 7,400 | 9,800 | ||||||
| Total |
$ | 2,141,240 | ||||||||
Determine the activity rate for each of the four activity cost pools.
3. Using the activity rates and other data from the problem, determine the unit product cost of each product.
Using the activity rates and other data from the problem, determine the unit product cost of each product. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.)
