Lampierre makes brass and gold frames. The company computed this information to decide whether to switch from the traditional allocation method to ABC: Brass Gold
Units planned 750 125
Material moves 400 100
Machine setups 400 600
Direct labor hours 700 1.200
The estimated overhead for the material cost pool is estimated as $12.500, and the estimate for the machine setup pool is $35.000. Calculate the allocation rate per unit of brass and per unit of gold using:
A. The traditional allocation method.
B. The activity-based costing method

Inspections 50 150 25.000
Labor hours 2.400 2,600
Compute the overhead assigned to each product under:
1. The traditional allocation method.
2. The activity-based costing method.
Grainger Company produces only one product and sells that product for $100 per unit. Cost information for the product is:
Direct Material $15 per Unit
Direct Labor $25 per Unit
Variable Overhead $5 per Unit
Fixed Overhead $34,000
Selling expenses are 54 per unit and are all variable. Administrative expenses of $20,000 are all foxed. Grainger produced 5,000 units, sold 4,000, and had no beginning inventory.
A Compute net income under:
1. absorption costing.
2. variable costing.
B. Reconcile the difference between the income under absorption and variable costing.

The county collector of suncoast county is responsible for collecting all property taxes levied by funds and governments within the boundaries of the county. to reimburse the county for estimated administrative expenses of operating the tax agency fund, the agency fund deducts 1.5 percent from the collections for the town, the school district, and the other towns. the total amount deducted is added to the collections for the county and remitted to the suncoast county general fund. the following events occurred in 2017: 1. current-year tax levies to be collected by the agency were: county general fund $ 10,333,000 town of bayshore general fund 4,840,000 suncoast county consolidated school district 6,550,000 other towns 3,120,000 total $ 24,843,000 2. $13,700,000 of current taxes was collected during the first half of 2017.3. liabilities to all funds and governments as a result of the first half-year collections were recorded. (a schedule of amounts collected for each participant, showing the amount withheld for the county general fund and net amounts due the participants, is recommended for determining amounts to be recorded for this transaction.)4. all cash in the tax agency fund was distributed. requireda. prepare journal entries for each of the foregoing transactions that affected the tax agency fund.

Zachary company produces commercial gardening equipment. since production is highly automated, the company allocates its overhead costs to product lines using activity-based costing. the costs and cost drivers associated with the four overhead activity cost pools follow: activities unit level batch level product level facility level cost $ 64,800 $ 27,730 $ 15,000 $ 154,000 cost driver 2,400 labor hrs. 47 setups percentage of use 11,000 units production of 780 sets of cutting shears, one of the company’s 20 products, took 240 labor hours and 7 setups and consumed 15 percent of the product-sustaining activities. required: (a) had the company used labor hours as a company wide allocation base, how much overhead would it have allocated to the cutting shears? (b) how much overhead is allocated to the cutting shears using activity-based costing? (c) compute the overhead cost per unit for cutting shears first using activity-based costing and then using direct labor hours for allocation if 780 units are produced. if direct product costs are $150 and the product is priced at 30 percent above cost for what price would the product sell under each allocation system? (d) assuming that activity-based costing provides a more accurate estimate of cost, indicate whether the cutting shears would be over- or underpriced if direct labor hours are used as an allocation base. explain how over-or undercosting can affect vaulker's profitability. (e) comment on the validity of using the allocated facility-level cost in the pricing decision. should other costs be considered in a cost- plus pricing decision? if so, which ones? what costs would you include if you were trying to decide whether to accept a special order?
