Question

In the past, Best Car has used direct labor hours as a basis of allocating overhead. Now, that they are looking to experiment with ABC, they have identified the following activities, activity cost pools and cost drivers in its manufacturing overhead as shown in the ABC schedule. The cost driver quantity per product line is 80% of total cost driver quantity for product A; and 20% for product B.

Required:

1) Complete the schedule below

2) Compute overhead for model A

3) Compute overhead for model B

Product B       

   8,000.00
