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.…
