Task 1

a). Calculating Cost of Unit using the Traditional Costing System:

1.  

Basic product

Super Product

Direct Labor Hours per Unit

4 DLHs

6DLHs

Number of Units

40,000 units

10,000 units

Total DLHs per Product

4 * 40,000

= 160,000 DLHs

6 * 10,000

= 60,000 DLHs

Total Estimated DLHs

160,000+60,000

= 220,000 DLHs

2.

Overhead Rate = Total Estimated Costs / Total Direct Labor Hours

                           = 1,000,000 / 220,000

                           = 4.55 $ per DLH

3. Per-Unit Cost:

Basic Product

Super Product

Direct Labor( 10$ per Hour)

40$

60$

Direct Material

15$

20$

Total Prime Costs

55$

80$

Overhead Costs

4.55$ * 4

= 18.2$

4.55$ * 6

= 27.3$

Total Cost Per unit:

73.2$

107.3$

Selling Price per Unit ( at profit 25% mark-up of the total cost per unit)

73.2$ * 1.25

= 91.5$

107.3$ * 1.25

= 134.125$

b). Calculating Cost of Unit Using the Activity-Based Costing System:

1. Activity Rates Calculation:

Number of Machine Set-ups

280,000$/100

= 2,800$ per Set-up

Number of Quality Control Inspections

220,000$/2,000

= 110$ per Inspection

Number of Sales Order Processed

240,000$/5,000

= 48$ per Sale Order Processed

Machine Hours

260,000$/500,000

= 0.52$ per Machine Hour

2. Calculating the Cost of Unit:

Basic Product

Super Product

Direct Labor Cost(10$ per hour)

40$ * 40,000 Units

= 1,600,000$

60$ * 10,000 Units

=  600,000$

Direst Material

15$ * 40,000 Units

= 600,000

20$ * 10,000 Units

= 200,000$

Total Prime Costs

1,200,000$

800,000$

Overhead Costs:

Machine Set-ups

2,800$ * 20

= 56,000$

2,800$ * 80

= 224,000$

Quality Control Inspections

110$ * 500

= 55,000$

110$ * 1,500

= 165,000$

Sales Order Processed

48$ * 1,500$

= 72,000$

48$ * 3500

= 168,000$

Machine Hours

0.52$ * 350,000

= 182,000$

0.52$ * 150,000

= 78,000$

Total Cost :

1,565,000$

1,435,000$

/ Number of Units

/40,000

/10,000

= Cost per Unit

= 64.13$

=143.5$

Selling Price (at Profit 25% of the full unit cost)

64.13 * 1.25

= 80.16$

143.5 * 1.25

= 179.38$

c). The Conclusions and the Advice that can be given to the Management of the Business:

The Conclusion:

If we compare both Traditional and the ABC Systems, we will find the following:

Cost Per Unit

Traditional Costing System

ABC System

Basic

Super

Basic

Super

73.2$

107.3$

64.13$

143.5$

In the Traditional system the Basic product was over-priced and the Super Product was under-priced. This comes back to how the company assigned its overhead costs.

The advice:

  • ABC system is an accurate system of costing where it assigns each cost in its place and that is why the costs of each product calculated is precise.
  • ABC system helps the managers in making right decisions and to estimate the profit.
  • Managers should use the right cost drivers.
