Chapter 17, Problem 14E
Exerciser 17-14 Activity-based costing P3 A2
Glassworks inc. products two types of glass shelving, rounded edge and squared edge, on the same production line. For the current period, the company reports the following darte.
Rounded Edge | Squared Edge | Total | |
Direct materials | $ 19,000 | $ 43,200 | $ 62,200 |
Direct labor | 12,200 | 23,800 | 36,000 |
Overhead (300% of direct cost)) | 36,600 | 71,400 | 108,000 |
Total cost | $ 67,800 | $ 138,400 | $206,200 |
Quantity produced | 10,500 ft. | 14,100 ft. | |
Average cost per ft. (rounded) | $ 6.46 | $ 9.82 |
Glasswork’s controller wishes to apply activity-based costing (ABC) to allocate the $108,000 of overhead costs incurred by the two product lines to see whether cost per foot would change markedly form that reported above. She has collected the following information.
Overhead cost category (Activity cost Pool) | Cost |
Supervision | $ 5,400 |
56,600 | |
Assembly line preparation | 46,000 |
Total overhead | $ 108,000 |
She has also collected the following information about the cost drivers for each category (cost pool) and the amount of each driver used by the two product lines.
Overhead cost Category |
(Activity Cost Pool)
Required
- Assign these three overhead cost pools to each of the two products using ABC.
- Determine average cost per foot for each of the two products using ABC. Check (2) Rounded edge. $5.19; Squared edge, $10.76
- Compare the average cost per foot under ABC with the average cost pr foot under the current method for each product. Explain why a difference between the two cost allocation method exists.
