Question

4Hi-Tek Manufacturing Inc. makes two types of industrial component parts—the B300 and the T500. An absorption costing income statement for the most recent period is shown below:


Hi-Tek Manufacturing Inc.
Income Statement
  Sales $ 1,644,000
  Cost of goods sold 1,224,374

  Gross margin 419,626
  Selling and administrative expenses 610,000

  Net operating loss $ (190,374)


Hi-Tek produced and sold 60,000 units of B300 at a price of $19 per unit and 12,600 units of T500 at a price of $40 per unit. The company’s traditional cost system allocates manufacturing overhead to products using a plantwide overhead rate and direct labor dollars as the allocation base. Additional information relating to the company’s two product lines is shown below:


B300 T500 Total
  Direct materials $401,000 $162,900 $563,900
  Direct labor 120,600 42,400 163,000
  Manufacturing overhead 497,474

  Cost of goods sold $ 1,224,374


The company has created an activity-based costing system to evaluate the profitability of its products. Hi-Tek’s ABC implementation team concluded that $53,000 and $106,000 of the company’s advertising expenses could be directly traced to B300 and T500, respectively. The remainder of the selling and administrative expenses was organization-sustaining in nature. The ABC team also distributed the company’s manufacturing overhead to four activities as shown below:


  Activity Cost Pool (and Activity Measure) MOH B300 T500 Total
  Machining (machine-hours) $ 205,154 90,300   62,800 153,100  
  Setups (setup hours) 131,120 78 220 298
  Product-sustaining (number of products) 100,800 1 1 2
  Other (organization-sustaining costs) 60,400 NA NA NA


  Total manufacturing overhead cost $ 497,474
