- ABC Company uses activity-based costing to allocate MOH. The company has 2 products d and e. The annual production of sales of Product d are 1,000 units and product e is 3000 units. There are three activity cost pool of MOH with an estimated total cost of $69,000. What is the MOH cost per unit for product d under activity-based costing?

The company’s activity-based costing system has allocated $144,000 to an activity called machine setups. It is considering allocating the machine setups cost to its products using either the number of setups or setup hours as the activity measure. It gathered the following data with respect to these two potential activity measures: Product A Product B Number of machine setups 30 45 Number of setup hours per setup 6 6 If the company uses number of setup hours as the activity measure, what is the activity rate for machine setups? rev: 10_30_2021_QC_CS-283805 Garrison 17e Rechecks 2021-11-13 Multiple Choice $11,825 $12,000 $320 $350arrow_forwardNaples Corporation has provided the following data from its activity-based costing accounting system: Indirect factory wages $ 820,000 Factory equipment depreciation $ 410,000 Distribution of resource consumption across activity cost pools: Customer Orders Product Processing Other Total Indirect factor wages 50 % 40 % 10 % 100 % Factory equipment depreciation 10 % 70 % 20 % 100 % The "Other" activity cost pool consists of the costs of idle capacity and organization-sustaining costs that are not assigned to products.
