Gable Company uses three activity cost pools. Each pool has a cost driver. Information for Gable Company follows:
Activity Cost Pool Total Cost
of Pool Cost Driver Estimated Total of Cost Driver
Machining $ 312,000 Number of machine hours 80,000
Designing costs 73,600 Number of design hours 8,000
Setup costs 71,600 Number of batches 500
Suppose that Gable Company manufactures three products, A, B, and C. Information about these products follows:
Product A Product B Product C
Number of machine hours 30,000 40,000 10,000
Number of design hours 3,200 1,800 3,000
Number of batches 50 175 275
Required:

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the activity rate for each activity:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Machining= 312,000/80,000= $3.9 per machine hour

Designing costs= 73,600/8,000= $9.2 per design hour

Setup costs= 71,600/500= $143.2 per batch

Now, we can allocate overhead to each product:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Product A:

Machining= 3.9*30,000= 117,000

Designing costs= 9.2*3,200= 29,440

Setup costs= 143.2*50= 7,160

Total overhead= $153,600

Product B:

Machining= 3.9*40,000= 156,000

Designing costs= 9.2*1,800= 16,560

Setup costs= 143.2*175= 25,060

Total overhead= $197,620

Product C:

Machining= 3.9*10,000= 39,000

Designing costs= 9.2*3,000= 27,600

Setup costs= 143.2*275= 39,380

Total overhead= $105,980

Overhead assigned to product A, B and C are $153,600 , $197,620 and $105,980

Overhead based problem:

Computation of activity rate;

                       Cost (A)     Cost Driver(B)      Activity Rate(A / B)

Machining  $312000 $80000                  3.9

Designing  $73600         $8000                  9.2

Setup          $71600         $500                  143.2

Overhead assigned = Machining + Designing + Setup

Overhead assigned to product A = (3.9)(30,000) + (9.2)(3200) + (143.2)(50)

Overhead assigned to product A = 117,000 + 29440 + 7160

Overhead assigned to product A = $153,600

Overhead assigned to product B = (3.9)(40,000) + (9.2)(1800) + (143.2)(175)

Overhead assigned to product B = 156,000 + 16,560 + 25,060

Overhead assigned to product B = $197,620

Overhead assigned to product C = (3.9)(10,000) + (9.2)(3,000) + (143.2)(275)

Overhead assigned to product C = 39,000 + 27,600 + 39380

Overhead assigned to product C = $105,980
