Exercise 7-20 Gallatin Carpet Cleaning is a small, family-owned business operating out of Bozeman, Montana. 1. C For its services, the company has always charged a flat fee per hundred square feet of carpet cleaned. The current fee is $28 per hundred square feet. However, there is some question about whether the company is actually making any money on jobs for some customers--particularly those located on remote ranches that require considerable travel time. The owner's daughter, home for the summer from college, has suggested investigating this question using activity-based costing. After some discussion, she designed a simple system consisting of four activity cost pools. The activity cost pools and their activity measures appear below: Activity Cost Pool Activity Measure Activity for the Year Cleaning carpet Sq. ft. cleaned (00's) 20,000 hundred square feet Travel to jobs miles driven 60,000 miles Job support Number of jobs 2,000 jobs 2.
