Activity-Based Costing

Steampunk Corporation has the following predicted indirect costsand cost drivers for 2019 for the given activity cost pools:

	Fabrication Department	Finishing Department	Cost Driver
Maintenance	$ 60,000	30,000	Machine hours
Materials handling	90,000	45,000	Material moves
Machine	210,000	15,000	Machine setups
Inspections	-	75,000	Inspection hours
Total	$ 360,000	$165,000

The following activity predictions were also made for theyear:

	Fabrication Department	Finishing Department
Machine hours	5,000	2,500
Material moves	1,500	750
Machine setups	350	25
Inspection hours	-	500

It is assumed that the cost per unit of activity for a givenactivity does not vary between departments. Steampunk's president,Abner Punk, is trying to evaluate the company's product mixstrategy regarding two of its product models, SW100 and SG150. Thecompany has been using a company wide overhead rate based onmachine hours but is considering switching to either departmentrates of activity-based rates. The production manager has providedthe following data for the production of a batch of 100 units foreach of these models:

	SW100	SG150
Direct materials cost	$ 20,000	$ 30,000
Direct labor cost	$ 8,000	$ 6,000
Machine hours (Fabrication)	250	350
Machine hours (Finishing)	100	50
Materials moves	20	40
Machine setups	5	10
Inspection hours	15	30

a. Determine the cost of one unit each of SW100 and SG150,assuming a company-wide overhead rate is used based on totalmachine hours.

Round rate to two decimal places.

Overhead rate based on total machine hours: $Answer per machinehour
