Question 2

Reference: 05-01
Acton Company has two products: A and B. The annual production and sales of Product A are 800 units and of Product B are 500 units. The company has traditionally used direct labour-hours as the basis for applying all manufacturing overhead to products. Product A requires 0.3 direct labour-hours per unit and Product B requires
0.2 direct labour-hours per unit. The total estimated overhead for next period is $92,023.
The company is considering switching to an activity-based costing system for the purpose of computing unit product costs for external reports. The new activity-based costing system would have three overhead activity cost pools-Activity 1, Activity 2, and General Factory-with estimated overhead costs and expected activity as
follows: $$\begin{array} { | l | l | l | l | l | } 
\hline \text { Activity } & & { \text { Expected Activity } } \
\hline \text { Cost Pool } & \begin{array} { l } 
\text { Estimated } \
\text { Overhead } \
\text { Costs }
\end{array} & \text { Product A } & \text { Product B } & \text { Total } \
\hline \text { Activity 1 } & \$ 14,487 & 500 & 600 & 1,100 \
\hline \text { Activity 2 } & \$ 64,800 & 2,500 & 500 & 3,000 \
\hline \text { General Factory } & \$ 12,736 & 240 & 100 & 340 \
\hline \text { Total } & \$ 92,023 & & & \
\hline
\end{array}$$ (Note: The General Factory activity cost pool's costs are allocated on the basis of direct labour-hours.)
-The overhead cost per unit of Product B under the traditional costing system is closest to:

Question 4

Reference: 05-06
Accola Company uses activity-based costing. The company has two products: A and B. The annual production and sales of Product A are 1,100 units and of Product B are 700 units. There are three activity cost pools, with estimated costs and expected activity as follows: $$\begin{array} { | l | l | l | l | l | } 
\hline \text { Activity } & & \text { Expected Activity } \
\hline \text { Cost Pool } & \text { Estimated Cost } & \text { Product A } & \text { Product B } & \text { Total } \
\hline \text { Activity 1 } & \$ 18,271 & 600 & 500 & 1,100 \
\hline \text { Activity 2 } & \$ 35,891 & 1,600 & 300 & 1,900 \
\hline \text { Activity 3 } & \$ 48,796 & 440 & 420 & 860 \
\hline
\end{array}$$
