Basic model using ABC costing?
A. $728500
B. $527000
C. $364250
D. $1238450
Answer: |
Number of Inspection for basic
model = Units Produced / Inspections = 3,400 / 100 = 34 units |
Number of Inspection for luxury
model = Units Produced / Inspections = 600 / 10 = 60 units |
Total number of inspected Units = 60 + 34 = 94 |
Allocation of inspection cost to Basic
model = (Total inspecting costs x Number of Inspection for basic model) / / Total number of inspected Units = $ 1,457,000 x 34 / 94 = $ 527,000 |
Inspecting costs allocated to the
Basic model using ABC costing = $ 527,000 |
Option (B) is Correct |
