Activity-based costing systems: A. use a single predetermined overhead rate based on machine hours instead of on direct labor B. frequently increase the overhead allocation to at least one product while decreasing the overhead allocation to at least one other product C. limit the number of cost pools D. always result in an increase of at least one products selling price
Electan Company produces two types of printers. The company uses ABC, and all activity drivers are duration drivers. Electan Company is considering using DBC and has gathered the following data to help with its decision. A. Activities with duration drivers: B. Activities with consumption ratios and costs: C. Products with cycle time and practical capacity: Required: 1. Using cycle time and practical capacity for each product, calculate the total time for all primary activities. Comment on the relationship to ABC. 2. Calculate the overhead rate that DBC uses to assign costs. Comment on the relationship to a unit-based plantwide overhead rate. 3. Use the overhead rate calculated in Requirement 2 to calculate (a) the overhead cost per unit for each product, and (b) the total overhead assigned to each product. How does this compare to the ABC assignments shown in Part B of the Information set? 4. What if the units actually produced were 10,000 for Printer A and 18,000 for Printer B. Using DBC, calculate the cost of unused capacity.
Wrappers Tape makes two products: Simple and Removable. It estimates it will produce 369,991 units of Simple and 146,100 of Removable, and the overhead for each of its cost pools is as follows: It has also estimated the activities for each cost driver as follows: Â How much is the overhead allocated to each unit of Simple and Removable?
Carltons Kitchens three cost pools and overhead estimates are as follows: Compare the overhead allocation using: A. The traditional allocation method B. The activity-based costing method (Hint: the traditional method uses machine hours as the allocation base.)
Using the data in P4-2 and Microsoft Excel: 1. Separate the variable and fixed elements. 2. Determine the cost to be charged to the product for the year. 3. Determine the cost to be charged to factory overhead for the year. 4. Determine the plotted data points using Chart Wizard. 5. Determine R2. 6. How do these solutions compare to the solutions in P4-2 and P4-3? 7. What does R2 tell you about this cost model?
Roberts Company produces two weed eaters: basic and advanced. The company has four activities: machining, engineering, receiving, and inspection. Information on these activities and their drivers is given below. Overhead costs: Required: 1. Calculate the four activity rates. 2. Calculate the unit costs using activity rates. Also, calculate the overhead cost per unit. 3. What if consumption ratios instead of activity rates were used to assign costs instead of activity rates? Show the cost assignment for the inspection activity.
Which is not a step In activity-based costing? A. identify the activities performed by the organization B. identify the cost driver(s) associated with each activity C. compute a cost rate per production D. assign costs to products by multiplying the cost driver rate by the volume of the cost driver units consumed by the product
Trail Outfitters has this information for its manufacturing: Its income statement under absorption costing is as follows: Prepare an income statement with variable costing and a reconciliation statement between both methods.
Which of the following product situations is better suited to job order costing than to process costing? A. Each product batch is exactly the same as the prior batch. B. The costs are easily traced to a specific product. C. Costs are accumulated by department. D. The value of work in process is based on assigning standard costs.
Happy Trails has this information for its manufacturing: Â Its income statement under absorption costing is: Prepare an income statement with variable costing and a reconciliation statement between both methods.
Larsen, Inc., produces two types of electronic parts and has provided the following data: There are four activities: machining, setting up, testing, and purchasing. Required: 1. Calculate the activity consumption ratios for each product. 2. Calculate the consumption ratios for the plantwide rate (direct labor hours). When compared with the activity ratios, what can you say about the relative accuracy of a plantwide rate? Which product is undercosted? 3. What if the machine hours were used for the plantwide rate? Would this remove the cost distortion of a plantwide rate?
Lean manufacturing uses value streams to produce a family of products that require the same manufacturing sequence. Value-stream costing is an approach often used to determine the unit product costs in a lean manufacturing environment. Which of the following best describes how unit costs are calculated using value-stream costing? a. Value stream costs divided by units shipped b. Value stream costs divided by units produced c. (Total prime costs + overhead costs assigned to the value stream using a plantwide rate) divided by units produced d. Activity-based costing assignments within the value stream
