6. Refer to Figure 4-10. What is the unit product cost for rug cleaners using activity based costing?

a. $8.00

b. $ 7.26

c. $ 4.00

d. $ 2.95

Explanation / Answer

Solution 1:

Plantwide overhead rate per labor hour = $430,000 / 50000 = $8.60 per hour

Total cost of rug cleaners = Prime cost + Overhead cost = $200,000 + 10000*$8.60 = $286,000

Nos of unit produced = 100000

Unit product cost = $286,000 / 100000 = $2.86 per unit

Hence option b is correct.

Solution 2:

Overhead rate molding = $290,000 / 20000 = $14.50 per machine hour

Overhead rate assembly = $140,000 / 40000 = $3.50 per labor hour

Total product cost for sweepers = Prime cost + Overhead applied

= $584,000 + (3000 * $14.50) + (35000 * $3.50) = $750,000

Nos of units produced for sweeper = 250000

unit product cost = $750,000 / 250000 = $3

Hence option c is correct.

Solution 3:

consumption ratios for rug cleaners and sweepers respectively for the inspection of products activity -

Rug cleaner = Inspection hours rug cleaner / Total inspection hours = 1600 / 4000 = 0.4

Sweeper = Inspection hours Sweeper / Total inspection hours = 2400 / 4000 = 0.6

Hence option c is correct.

Solution 4:

Consumption ratios for rug cleaners for the departments on the basis of the departmental drivers (molding; assembly):

Molding = Machine hours for rug cleaner / Total machine hours in molding = 17000 / 20000 = 0.85

Assembly = Labor hours for rug cleaner / Total labor hours in assembly = 5000/40000 = 0.125

Hence option b is correct.
