MC Qu. 07-06 ABC Inc. produces a single... ABC Inc. produces a single product and manufactured 20,000 units and sold 10,000 units last year. ABC had a practical production capacity of 20,000 units per year. Indirect Factory Wages: Factory Utilities: $140,000 $ 40,000 $ 10,000 Factory Depreciation: Direct manufacturing costs per unit are $110. The company uses an activity-based costing system which compiles costs into 3 cost pools, machining, milling and assembly. The costs allocated to these activity cost pools break down as follows: Usage: Cost: Machining Milling Assembly Indirect Factory Wages: 50% 30% 20% Factory Utilities: 40% 40% 20% Factory Depreciation: 10% 90% 0% The following cost drivers are used for each of the following activity cost pools: • Machining: Machine Hours Milling: Milling Hours . Assembly: Direct Labour Hours. Practical and expected capacity for each of the cost pools are shown below: • Machining: 45,500 Machine Hours. . Milling: 61,000 Milling Hours. Assembly: 19,000 Direct Labour Hours. Actual Usage was as follows: . Machining: 20,000 Machine Hours. Milling: 80,000 Milling Hours. Assembly: 15,000 Direct Labour Hours. Each unit requires a budgeted 2 Machine Hours, 1 Milling Hour and 4 Direct Labour Hours. ABC's policy is to charge $84 per unit. The budgeted full cost per unit of product using ABC costing would be: Multiple Choice $15 $93 $123 $38 Explanation Machining activity rate (ACDR): (50% × $140,000) + (50% × $40,000) + (10% × $10,000) = $91,000. $91,000/45,500 machine hours = $2.00 per machine hour. Milling activity rate (ACDR): (30% × $140,000) + (25% x $40,000) + (90% × $10,000) = $61,000. $61,000/61,000 milling hours = $1.00 per milling hour. Assembly activity rate (ACDR): (20% × $140,000) + (25% × $40,000) + (0% × $10,000) = $38,000. $38,000/19,000 direct labour hours = $2.00 per direct labour hour. Budgeted cost per unit: $110 + [($91,000 / 45,500) × 2] + [($61,000 / 61,000) x 1] + [($38,000 / 19,000) × 4] = $110 + $4 + $1 + $8 = $123 per unit.
