Activity Cost Pools, Activity Rates, and Product Costs usingActivity-Based Costing
Caldwell Home Appliances Inc. is estimating the activity costassociated with producing ovens and refrigerators. The indirectlabor can be traced into four separate activity pools, based ontime records provided by the employees. The budgeted activity costand activity-base information are provided as follows:
Activity Activity Pool Cost Activity Base Procurement $144,480 Number of purchase orders Scheduling 6,300 Number of production orders Materials handling 30,420 Number of moves Product development 23,400 Number of engineering changes Total cost $204,600
The estimated activity-base usage and unit information for twoproduct lines was determined as follows:
Number of
Purchase Orders Number of
Production Orders Number of
Moves Number of
Engineering Change Orders
Units Ovens 570 230 460 130 1,390 Refrigerators 550 120 320 50 1,040 Totals 1,120 350 780 180 2,430
a. Determine the activity rate for eachactivity cost pool. If required, round your answers to the nearestdollar.
Procurement (per purchase order) $ Scheduling (per production order) $ Materials handling (per move) $ Product development (per engineering change order) $
b. Determine the activity-based cost per unitof each product. Round your answers to the nearest cent.
