Feauto Manufacturing Corporation has a traditional costing system in which it applies manufacturing overhead to its products using a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours (DLHs). The company has two products, I63E and E76I, about which it has provided the following data:
I63E | E76I | |||||
Direct materials per unit | $ | 21.90 | $ | 65.70 | ||
Direct labor per unit | $ | 11.10 | $ | 33.30 | ||
Direct labor-hours per unit | 0.50 | 1.50 | ||||
Annual production (units) | 48,000 | 16,000 | ||||
The company's estimated total manufacturing overhead for the year
is $1,963,200 and the company's estimated total direct labor-hours
for the year is 48,000.
The company is considering using a form of activity-based costing
to determine its unit product costs for external reports. Data for
this proposed activity-based costing system appear below:
Activities and Activity Measures | Estimated Overhead Cost |
||
Assembling products (DLHs) | $ | 960,000 | |
Preparing batches (batches) | 228,800 | ||
Product support (product variations) | 774,400 | ||
Total | $ | 1,963,200 | |
Expected Activity | |||
I63E | E76I | Total | |
DLHs | 24,000 | 24,000 | 48,000 |
Batches | 1,250 | 720 | 1,970 |
Product variations | 2,500 | 1,440 | 3,940 |
The manufacturing overhead that would be applied to a unit of product E76I under the activity-based costing system is closest to:
