Cost allocation in hospitals, alternative allocation criteria. Harold Monette vacationed at Lake Tahoe last winter. Unfortunately, he broke his ankle while skiing and spent two days at the Sierra University Hospital. Monette’s insurance company received a $4,950 bill for his two-day stay. One item that caught Monette’s attention was a $10.60 charge for a roll of cotton. Monette is a salesman for Johnson & Johnson and knows that the cost to the hospital of the roll of cotton is between $2.45 and $3.25. He asked for a breakdown of the $10.60 charge. The accounting office of the hospital sent him the following information: Monette believes the overhead charge is outrageous. He comments, “There was nothing I could do about it. When they come in and dab your stitches, it’s not as if you can say, ‘Keep your cotton roll. I brought my own.’”
