Black and Blue Sports Inc. manufactures two products: snowboards and skis. The factory overhead incurred is as follows:
 
1
Indirect labor
$507,000.00
2
Cutting Department
156,000.00
3
Finishing Department
192,000.00
4
Total
$855,000.00
 
The activity base associated with the two production departments is direct labor hours. The indirect labor can be assigned to two different activities as follows:
 
1
Activity
Budgeted Activity Cost
Activity Base
2
Production control
$237,000.00
Number of production runs
3
Materials handling
270,000.00
Number of moves
4
Total
$507,000.00
 
 
The activity-base usage quantities and units produced for the two products follow:
 
  Number of Number of Direct Labor Hours— Direct Labor Hours— Units
  Production Runs Moves Cutting Finishing Produced
Snowboards 430 5,000 4,000 2,000 6,000
Skis 70 2,500 2,000 4,000 6,000
Total 500 7,500 6,000 6,000 12,000
 
  Required:
 
1. Determine the factory overhead rates under the multiple production department rate method. Assume that indirect labor is associated with the production departments, so that the total factory overhead is $315,000 and $540,000 for the Cutting and Finishing departments, respectively.*
2. Determine the total and per-unit factory overhead costs allocated to each product, using the multiple production department overhead rates in (1).*
