Question
Arcana Ltd has two support departments (information technology and engineering) and two production departments (assembly and finishing). The budgeted costs of the information technology and engineering departments are $90,000 and $50,000, respectively. The usage of the two support departments is as follows:
User of services | Information technology | Engineering |
Information technology | 5% | |
Engineering | 10% | |
Assembly | 60% | 40% |
Finishing | 30% | 55% |
Using the direct method, what is the information technology department cost allocated to the assembly department?

Georgetown manufactures 17,500 basic lamps and 6,160 designer lamps. Its activity-based costing system uses two indirect-cost pools. One cost pool is for setup costs and the other for general manufacturing overhead. Georgetown allocates setup costs to the two lamps based on setup labour-hours and general manufacturing overhead costs on the basis of direct manufacturing labour-hours. It provides the following budgeted cost information. (Click the icon to view the information.) Calculate the total budgeted costs of the basic and designer lamps using Georgetown' activity-based costing system. Begin by calculating the overhead rates for each of the two indirect-cost pools: setup costs and general manufacturing overhead. First select the formula; then enter the applicable amounts and calculate the rate. Begin with the overhead rate for set up costs. (Round the budgeted rate to the nearest dollar.
