If intensive care uses half of the hours and normal care the other half, then 50 percent of the cost is assigned to each patient category. Thus, the cost per patient day by patient category is as follows:Intensive care = $393,750*/2,000 days = $196.88 per dayNormal care = $393,750/8,000 days= $49.22 per day *$525,000/2 = $262,500The cost assignment reflects the actual usage of the nursing resource and, thus, should be more accurate. Patient days would be accurate only if intensive care patients used the same nursing hours per day as normal care patients.3.The salary of the nurse assigned only to intensive care is a directly traceable cost. To assign the other nursing costs, the hours of additional usage would need to be measured. Thus, both direct tracing and driver tracing would be used to assign nursing costs for this new setting.4.It would be very difficult to use direct tracing for laundry costs. Segregating laundry by patient is possible but impractical. For one thing, the amount of laundry for each patient likely would not justify running separate loads. Furthermore, if we add to this the fact that laundry also operates to service other areas such as surgery and the emergency room, then the impracticality becomes even more evident. Driver tracing is recommended. A measure of usage such as pounds of laundry is more feasible. Total laundry costs divided by total pounds of laundry provides a rate that can be used to assign the laundry cost. For the two patient types, the pounds used by each type would be needed so that the rate can be applied. In a practical sense, a sample could be taken and the average pounds per patient type per day could be used to assign the cost to avoid repetitive weighing.481.Product cost assignment:Overhead rates: Patterns:$30,000/15,000 = $2.00 per DLH Finishing:$90,000/30,000 = $3.00 per DLHUnit cost computation:BackpacksDuffel BagsPatterns:$2.00 0.1$0.20$2.00 0.2$0.40Finishing:$3.00 0.20.60$3.00 0.41.20Total per unit$0.80$1.602.Cost before addition of duffel bags: $60,000/100,000 = $0.60 per unitThe assignment is accurate because all costs belong to the one product.3.Activity-based cost assignment:Stage 1: Pool rate = $120,000/80,000 = $1.50 per transactionStage 2:Overhead applied:Backpacks:$1.50 40,000*= $60,000Duffel bags:$1.50 40,000= $60,000*80,000 transactions/2 = 40,000(number of transactions had doubled)Unit cost:Backpacks:$60,000/100,000= $0.60 per unitDuffel bags:$60,000/25,000= $2.40 per unit4.This problem allows the student to see what the accounting cost per unit should be by providing the ability to calculate the cost with and without the duffel bags. With this perspective, it becomes easy to see the benefits of the activity-based approach over those of the functional-based approach. The activity-based approach provides the same cost per unit as the single-product setting. The functional-based approach used transactions to allocate accounting costs to each producing department, and this allocation probably reflects quite well the consumption of accounting costs by each producing department. The problem is the second-stage allocation. Direct labor hours do not capture the consumption pattern of the individual products as they pass through the departments. The distortion occurs, not in using transactions to assign accounting costs to departments, but in using direct labor hours to assign these costs to the two products.In a single-product environment, ABC offers no improvement in product costing accuracy. However, even in a single-product environment, it may be possible to increase the accuracy of cost assignments to other cost objects such as customers.491.Unit-level costs ($120 20,000)$2,400,000Batch-level costs ($80,000 20)1,600,000Product-level costs ($80,000 10)800,000Facility-level ($20 20,000)400,000Total cost$5,200,0002.Unit-level costs ($120 30,000)$3,600,000Batch-level costs ($80,000 20)1,600,000Product-level costs ($80,000 10)800,000Facility-level costs400,000Total cost$6,400,000The unit-based costs increase because these costs vary with the number of units produced. Because the batches and engineering orders did not change, the batch-level costs and product-level costs remain the same, behaving as fixed costs with respect to the unit-based driver. The facility-level costs are fixed costs and do not vary with any driver.3.Unit-level costs ($120 30,000)$3,600,000Batch-level costs ($80,000 30)2,400,000Product-level costs ($80,000 12)960,000Facility-level costs400,000Total cost$7,360,000Batch-level costs increase as the number of batches changes, and the costs of engineering support change as the number of orders change. Thus, batches and orders increased, increasing the total cost of the model.4.Classifying costs by category allows their behavior to be better understood. This, in turn, creates the ability to better manage costs and make decisions.4101.Overhead rate = $6,990,000/272,500 = $25.65 per DLH*Overhead assignment: X-12: $25.65 250,000/1,000,000 = $6.41*S-15: $25.65 22,500/200,000 = $2.89*Rounded numbers used throughoutUnit gross margin:X-12S-15Price$15.93$12.00Cost10.68*6.02*Gross margin$5.25$5.98*Prime costs + Overhead = ($4.27 + $6.41) *Prime costs + Overhead = ($3.13 + $2.89)2.PoolsDriverPool RateSetupRuns$240,000/300 = $800 per runMachineMachine hrs.$1,750,000/185,000 = $9.46/per MHrReceivingOrders$2,100,000/1,400 = $1,500/per orderEngineeringEngineering hrs.$2,000,000/10,000 = $200/per eng. hourMaterial handlingMoves$900,000/900 = $1,000/per moveOverhead assignment:X-12S-15Setup costs:$800 100$80,000$800 200$160,000Machine costs:$9.46 125,0001,182,500$9.46 60,000567,600Receiving costs:$1,500 400600,000$1,500 1,0001,500,000Engineering costs:$200 5,0001,000,000$200 5,0001,000,000Material-handling costs:$1,000 500500,000$1,000 400400,000Total overhead costs$3,362,500$3,627,600Units produced 1,000,000200,000Overhead cost per kg$3.36$18.14Prime cost per kg4.273.13Unit cost$7.63$21.27Selling price$15.93$12.00Less unit cost7.6321.27Unit gross margin$8.30$(9.27)3.No. The cost of making X-12 is $7.63, much less than the amount indicated by functional-based costing. The company can compete by lowering its price on the high-volume product. The $10 price offered by competitors is not out of line. The concern about selling below cost is unfounded.4.The $12 price of compound S-15 is well below its cost of production. This explains why Pearson has no competition and why customers are willing to pay $15, a price that is probably still way below competitors quotes.5.The price of X-12 should be lowered to a competitive level and the price of S-15 increased so that a reasonable return is being earned.531.Overhead rate = $180/$900 = 0.20 or 20% of direct labor dollars.(This rate was calculated using information from the Ladan job; however, the Myron and Coe jobs would give the same answer.)2.LadanMyron Coe WalkerWillisBeginning WIP$1,730$1,180$2,500$0$0Direct materials400150260800760Direct labor800900650350900Applied overhead16018013070180Total$3,090$2,410$3,540$1,220$1,840Note: This is just one way of setting up the job-order cost sheets.

In this case, there is no need for departmental rates, and a plantwide rate is sufficient.551.Last years unit-based overhead rate = $50,000/10,000 = $5This years unit-based overhead rate = $100,000/10,000 = $10Last YearThis YearBike cost:2 $20$40$403 $123636Overhead:5 $5255 $1050Total$101$126Price last year = $101 1.40 = $141.40/day Price this year = $126 1.40 = $176.40/dayThis is a $35 increase over last year, nearly a 25 percent increase.

Adding Level 4 bikes will increase the use of the most expensive activities, meaning that the rental rate will no longer be an average of $5 per rental day. Mountain View Rentals might need to set a Level 4 price based on the increased cost of both the bike and conversion cost.671.a.MoldingUnits to account for:Units accounted for:Beginning WIP500Transferred out1,300Started1,000Ending WIP2001,5001,500b.AssemblyUnits to account for:Units accounted for:Beginning WIP0Transferred out900Started1,300Ending WIP4001,3001,300c.PackagingUnits to account for:Units accounted for:Beginning WIP150Transferred out1,050Started900Ending WIP01,0501,0502.Equivalent units:MoldingAssemblyPackagingMat.Conv.Tr.
