Ellix Company manufactures two models of ultra-high fidelity speakers—the X200 model and the X99 model. Data regarding the two products follow: Product Direct Labor-Hours Annual Production Total Direct Labor-Hours X200 0.4 DLHs per unit 17,000 units 6,800 DLHs X99 0.6 DLH per unit 40,000 units 24,000 DLHs 30,800 DLHs Additional information about the company follows: Model X200 requires $35 in direct materials per unit, and model X99 requires $24. The direct labor workers are paid $20 per hour. The company has always used direct labor-hours as the allocation base for applying manufacturing overhead cost to products. Model X200 is more complex to manufacture than model X99 and requires special equipment. Because of the special work required in (d) above, the company is considering an activity-based absorption costing that applies manufacturing overhead cost to products using three activity cost pools: Activity Cost Pool Activity Measure Estimated Total Cost…
