Hensel Manufacturing separates its manufacturing overhead costs into 2 broad categories: (1) maintenance costs and (2) utility costs. Maintenance costs average $100,000 per month, whereas utility costs average $8,000 per month. Maintenance costs are allocated to 2 activity cost pools: (1) the repair cost pool and (2) the set-up cost pool. Utility costs also are allocated to 2 activity cost pools: (1) the heating and air conditioning cost pool (HVAC) and (2) the machinery cost pool. Maintenance costs are allocated to their unique activity cost pools on the basis of the number of employees associated with each pool. Utility costs are allocated to their unique activity cost pools on the basis of kilowatt-hour (kWh) consumption. Of the company's maintenance employees, 70% engage primarily in repair activities, whereas 30% engage primarily in set-up activities. Approximately 75% of the company's kWh consumption can be traced to HVAC use, whereas 25% of its kWh consumption can be traced to…
Yalland Manufacturing Company makes two different products, M and N. The company’s two departments are named after the products; for example, Product M is made in Department M. Yalland’s accountant has identified the following annual costs associated with these two products.
Identify the costs that are (1) direct costs of Department M, (2) direct costs of Department N, and (3) indirect costs.
Select the appropriate cost drivers for the indirect costs and allocate these costs to Departments M and N.
Determine the total estimated cost of the products made in Departments M and N. Assume that Yalland produced 2,000 units of Product M and 4,000 units of Product N during the year. If Yalland prices its products at cost plus 40 percent of cost, what price per unit must it charge for Product M and for Product N?
