Additional information about the company follows: Hubs require $24 in direct materials per unit, and Sprockets require $17. The direct labor wage rate is $14 per hour. Hubs require special equipment and are more complex to manufacture than Sprockets. The ABC system has the following activity cost pools: Estimated Activity Activity Cost Pool (Activity Measure) Overhead Cost Hubs Sprockets Total Machine setups (number of setups) $ 27,000 125 100 225 Special processing (machine-hours) $ 258,000 4,300 0 4,300 General factory (organization-sustaining) $ 124,800 NA NA NA Required: 1. Compute the activity rate for each activity cost pool. 2. Determine the unit product cost of each product according to the ABC system.

Fogerty Company makes two products, titanium Hubs and Sprockets. Data regarding the two products follow:

                                    Direct Labor     Production

                                 hours per unit          Units

Hubs                                  0.7                 27,000

Sprockets                          0.3                59,000

 Answer:

Fogerty Company

The unit product cost of each product according to the ABC system:

                                           Hubs      Sprockets

Unit production cost       $46.22         $22.46

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                          Hubs  Sprockets

Direct materials per unit    $24      $17

Direct labor rate per hour  $14       $14

Direct labor per unit           $9.80   $4.20 ($14 *0.3)

Estimated Activity  Activity Cost Pool Overhead     Hubs  Sprockets  Total

                              (Activity Measure)      Cost

Machine setups (number of setups)    $ 27,000       125         100       225

Special processing (machine-hours) $ 258,000   4,300             0    4,300

General factory (organization-sustaining) $ 124,800 NA          NA        NA

Total overhead expenses                   $409,800

Activity rate:

Machine setups = $120 ($27,000/225)

Special processing = $60 ($258,000/4,300)

General factory = $62,400 ($124,800/2)
