1. Lubelchek Company uses activity-based costing to determine the costs of its two
products: A and B. The estimated total cost and expected activity for one of the
company's three activity cost pools are as follows:
Expected Activity
Estimated Cost Product A Product B
$28,000 400 300
Part (a) What is the activity rate under the activity-based costing system for this
activity?
Activity rate = Estimated cost ÷ total expected activity
Activity rate = $28,000 ÷ (400+300) = $40.00
Part (b) How much total cost will be assigned to Products A and B for this activity?
Product cost allocation for this activity = Expected activity × activity rate
Product A cost allocation for this activity = 400 × $40 = $16,000
Product B cost allocation for this activity = 300 × $40 = $12,000
2. Barabanova Company has two products: A and B. The annual production and sales
level of Product A is 18,188 units. The annual production and sales level of Product B is
31,652. The company uses activity-based costing and has prepared the following analysis
showing the estimated total cost and expected activity for each of its three activity cost
pools:
Part (a) What is the total overhead cost allocated to Product B under activity-based
costing?
Activity 1 = ($80,000 ÷ (200+800)) × 800 = $64,000
Activity 2 = ($360,000 ÷ (600+5,400)) × 5,400 = $324,000
Activity 3 = ($58,400 ÷ (1,000_500)) × 500 = $19,466.67
Total overhead cost per unit of Product B = $407,466.6
Part (b) What is the overhead cost per unit of Product B under activity-based
costing?
Overhead cost per unit of product = total overhead cost per unit of product B ÷ number of
units produced
Overhead cost per unit of product = $407,466.67 ÷ 31,562
Overhead cost per unit of product = $12.87
3. Barabanova Company has two products: A and B. The annual production and sales
level of Product A is 18,188 units. The annual production and sales level of Product B is
31,652. The company uses activity-based costing and has prepared the following analysis
showing the estimated total cost and expected activity for each of its three activity cost
pools:
