Zachary company produces commercial gardening equipment. since production is highly automated, the company allocates its overhead costs to product lines using activity-based costing. the costs and cost drivers associated with the four overhead activity cost pools follow: activities unit level batch level product level facility level cost $ 64,800 $ 27,730 $ 15,000 $ 154,000 cost driver 2,400 labor hrs. 47 setups percentage of use 11,000 units production of 780 sets of cutting shears, one of the company’s 20 products, took 240 labor hours and 7 setups and consumed 15 percent of the product-sustaining activities. required: (a) had the company used labor hours as a company wide allocation base, how much overhead would it have allocated to the cutting shears? (b) how much overhead is allocated to the cutting shears using activity-based costing? (c) compute the overhead cost per unit for cutting shears first using activity-based costing and then using direct labor hours for allocation if 780 units are produced. if direct product costs are $150 and the product is priced at 30 percent above cost for what price would the product sell under each allocation system? (d) assuming that activity-based costing provides a more accurate estimate of cost, indicate whether the cutting shears would be over- or underpriced if direct labor hours are used as an allocation base. explain how over-or undercosting can affect vaulker's profitability. (e) comment on the validity of using the allocated facility-level cost in the pricing decision. should other costs be considered in a cost- plus pricing decision? if so, which ones? what costs would you include if you were trying to decide whether to accept a special order?

Hank itzek manufactures and sells homemade wine, and he wants to develop a standard cost per gallon. the following are required for production of a 70-gallon batch. 2,700 ounces of grape concentrate at $0.04 per ounce 77 pounds of granulated sugar at $0.43 per pound 133 lemons at $0.79 each 350 yeast tablets at $0.24 each 350 nutrient tablets at $0.14 each 2,500 ounces of water at $0.001 per ounce hank estimates that 4% of the grape concentrate is wasted, 9% of the sugar is lost, and 32% of the lemons cannot be used. compute the standard cost of the ingredients for one gallon of wine. (round intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places, e.g.
