Consumption Ratios; Activity Rates Saludable Company produces two types of get-well cards: scented and regular. Drivers for the four activities are as follows: Scented Cards Regular Cards
Inspection hours 1,080 720
Setup hours 420 180
Machine hours 960 2,880
Number of moves 2,880 720
The following activity data has been collected:
Inspecting products $45,000
Setting up equipment 28,500
Machining 30,720
Moving materials 16,200
Required:
1. Calculate the consumption ratios for the four drivers. Round your answers to two decimal places.
Scented Cards Regular Cards
Inspection hours
Setup hours
Machine hours
Number of moves
2. Which of the following statements indicate there is product diversity?
Explain the significance of product diversity for decision making if the company chooses to use machine hours to assign all overhead.
If machine hours are used as the only driver, cards would receive 21% of the overhead, and cards would receive 79% of the overhead. Yet, the cards consume well over 53% of the non-machine related overhead. Thus, the Scented cards are , and the Regular cards are . This inaccuracy can adversely affect many decisions, including pricing, keep or drop, and cost-volume-profit.
3. Calculate the activity rates that would be used to assign costs to each product. Round your answers to the nearest cent.
Rates:
Inspecting products $ per inspection hour
Setting up equipment $ per setup hour
Machining $ per machine hour
Moving materials $ per move
4. Suppose that the activity rate for inspecting products is $20 per inspection hour. How many hours of inspection are expected for the coming year?

2. Diverse products consume activities in different amounts. When they are different product line with diversification the product cost may vary than the actual costs IF ABC is not used. ABC helps removal of un necessary amounts allocated and assigns actual costs incurred.

The Scented cards are more costly than the Regular card. If machine hours are used as the only driver,Scented cards cards would receive 21% of the overhead, and Regular cards would receive 79% of the overhead. This shows that Scented cards are under costed and Regualr Cards are over costed if ABC is not used.

3. Activity Rate= Activity Cost/ Cost Driver

Activity                                              

Inspecting products /Inspection hours= $45,000/1800=  25 $ per inspection hour    

Setting up equipment/Setup hours= 28,500/600= $ 47.5 per setup hour          

Machining/Machine hours = 30,720/3840  =  $8  per machine hour                          

Moving materials /Number of moves=16,200/3600 =  $ 4.5 per move  

4.      Activity Rate= Activity Cost/ Cost Driver

            $ 20= $ 45000/ Hours

           Hours = $ 45000/20 =  2250 inspection hours are expected  for the coming year.    

you can lose ranking 2 ways.

1) you don't have enough points due to you expending them by asking questions/your answers are deleted.

2) your brainliest's expired. this means that brainliests, once they exceed the 30 day limit, expires. this is to ensure that you continue to contribute into the community at a constant rank if you want to continue to have/exceed the rank you have right now.

if you go to profile, and click "show more information" located on the bottom left of the box with your information (on top of the questions answered, questions asked, and friends), you will be given the following information (example):

member since : 02/13/2017, 18: 11

questions answered: 9741

questions asked: 162

no. of brainliest answers: 1575

brainliest answers in last 30 days: 10

warnings: 0 view

questions/answers reported: 2637

questions/answers incorrectly reported: 64

look at the "brainliest answers in the last 30 days". this is the one that will affect your rank other than your points. again, once your brainliest expires (was earned 31+ days ago), it will not be counted.
