Lysiak Corporation uses an activity based costing system to assign overhead costs to products. In the first stage, two overhead costs--equipment depreciation and supervisory expense-are allocated 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 $ 47,000 Supervisory expense $ 6,000 Distribution of Resource Consumption Across Activity Cost Pools: Activity Cost Pools Machining Order Filling Other Equipment depreciation 0.60 0.10 0.30 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 data for the company's two products follow: Activity: MHs (Machining) Orders (Order Filling) Product C9 6,900 200…

Carter, Incorporated, produces two products, Product A and Product B. Carter uses a traditional volume-based costing system in which direct labor hours are the allocation base. Carter is considering switching to an ABC system by splitting its manufacturing overhead cost across three activities: Design, Production, and Inspection. The cost of each activity and usage of the cost drivers are as follows: Activity Pool (Driver) Design (engineering hours) Production (direct labor hours) Inspection (batches) Cost of Pool $ 300,000 500,000 200,000 300,000 100 Carter manufactures 10,000 units of Product A and 7,500 units of Product B per month. Required: a. Calculate the predetermined overhead rate under the traditional costing system. b. Calculate the activity rate for Design. c. Calculate the activity rate for Machining. d. Calculate the activity rate for Inspection. e. Calculate the indirect manufacturing costs assigned to each unit of Product A under the traditional costing system. f.…
