Way Cool produces two different models of air conditioners. The company produces the mechanical systems in its components department. The mechanical systems are combined with the housing assembly in its finishing department. The activities, costs, and drivers associated with these two manufacturing processes and the production support process follow. Process Activity Components Changeover Machining Setups Finishing Welding Support Inspecting Rework Purchasing Providing space Providing utilities Overhead Cost $ 559,650 411,510 74,000 $1,045, 160 Units produced Welding hours Batches Number of inspections Machine hours Setups Rework orders Purchase orders $ 288,640 257,600 55,000 $ 601,248 $ 194,540 30,800 37,968 $ 263,300 Model 145 1,200 1,200 455 475 Driver Number of batches Machine hours Number of setups Additional production Information concerning its two product lines follows. 3,350 28 158 365 Welding hours Number of inspections Rework orders Purchase orders Number of units Number of units Model 212 2,400 3,200 455 330 5,350 20 100 183 Quantity 910 8,780 40 4,400 885 250 548 3,600 3,600 Required: 1. Using ABC, compute the overhead cost per unit for each product line. 2. Determine the total cost per unit for each product line if the direct labor and direct materials costs per unit are $250 for Model 145 and $112 for Model 212. 3. If the market price for Model 145 is $993.57 and the market price for Model 212 is $536.62, determine the profit or loss per unit for each model.
Process Costing
Process costing is a sort of operation costing which is employed to determine the value of a product at each process or stage of producing process, applicable where goods produced from a series of continuous operations or procedure.
Job Costing
Job costing is adhesive costs of each and every job involved in the production processes. It is an accounting measure. It is a method which determines the cost of specific jobs, which are performed according to the consumer’s specifications. Job costing is possible only in businesses where the production is done as per the customer’s requirement. For example, some customers order to manufacture furniture as per their needs.
ABC Costing
