Riverside Florists uses an activity-based costing system to compute the cost of making floral bouquets and delivering the bouquets to its commercial customers. Company personnel who earn $180,000 typically perform both tasks; other firm-wide overhead is expected to total $70,000. These costs are allocated as follows: Bouquet
Production Delivery Other
Wages and salaries 60% 30% 10%
Other overhead 50% 35% 15%
Riverside anticipates making 20,000 bouquets and 4,000 deliveries in the upcoming year.

Explanation:

A) The cost of wages and salaries and other overhead that would be charged to each bouquet made is closest to:

Total Cost will be calculated as:

= (180,000 × 60%) + (70000 × 50%)

= (180000 × 0.6) + (70000 × 0.5)

= 108000 + 35000

= 143000

Therefore, the cost of wages and the salaries and every other overheads that'll be charged to each bouquet will be:

= Total Cost/Total Bouquets

= 143000/20000

= $7.15

B) The cost of wages and salaries and other overhead that would be charged to each delivery is closest to:

Total Cost will be calculated as:

= (180,000 × 30%) + (70000 × 35%)

= (180000 × 0.3) + (70000 × 0.35)

= 54000 + 24500

= 78500

The answer will then be:

= Total Cost/Total Deliveries

= 78500/4000

= $19.63
