A manufacturer produces three products: A, B, and C.The company uses the following information to determine activity rates for each pool:CostPoolCostsTotal ActivityPool 1 $300,00020,000 hoursPool 2 $20,000500 poundsPool 3 $10,000100 movesTotal $330,000 Data concerning the three products appear below:Cost Driver Products A Products B Products CNumber of hours 10,0007,5002,500Number of pounds 150250100Number of moves 203050What is the total amount of overhead applied to product A? $158,000 $265,000 $150,000 $125,500

Tracing overhead costs to activities involves dividing overhead costs into:Cost poolsPool rateCost driversOverhead rates

Ignoring your calculations in (A) and (B), compute:a. the manufacturing overhead allocation rate for each activity using ABC,b. the cost to produce one unit of each product line, andc. the profitability of per unit of each product line.

Allure Company manufactures and distributes two products, M and XY. Overhead costs are currently allocated using the number of units produced as the allocation base. The controller has recommended changing to an activity-based costing (ABC) system. She has collected the following information:Activity Cost Driver Amount M XYProduction setups Number of setups $ 72,000 12 28Material handling Number of parts 50,000 54 36Packaging costs Number of units 355,000 108,000 72,000    $ 477,000    What is the total overhead per unit allocated to Product XY using activity-based costing (ABC)?Note: Do not round intermediate calculations; round your final answer to the nearest cent.Multiple Choice$2.95$2.65$1.69$2.45
