Answer the following questions using the information below:
Nichols, Inc., manufactures remote controls. Currently the company uses a plant-wide rate for allocating manufacturing overhead. The plant manager believes it is time to refine the method of cost allocation and has the accounting department identify the primary production activities and their cost drivers:
ActivitiesCost driverAllocation Rate
Material handlingNumber of parts$2 per part
AssemblyLabor hours$20 per hour
InspectionTime at inspection station$3 per minute
The current traditional cost method allocates overhead based on direct manufacturing labor hours using a rate of $200 per labor hour.
24) What are the indirect manufacturing costs per remote control assuming the traditional method is used and a batch of 500 remote controls are produced? The batch requires 1,000 parts, 10 direct manufacturing labor hours, and 15 minutes of inspection time.
A) $2,000.00 per remote control
B) $0.25 per remote control
C) $2.00 per remote control
D) $4.00 per remote control
25) What are the indirect manufacturing costs per remote control assuming an activity-based-costing method is used and a batch of 50 remote controls are produced? The batch requires 100 parts, 6 direct manufacturing labor hours, and 2.5 minutes of inspection time.
A) $4.00 per remote control
B) $6.55 per remote control
C) $24.00 per remote control
D) $327.50 per remote control
26) What are the indirect manufacturing costs per remote control assuming an activity-based-costing method is used and a batch of 100 remote controls are produced? The batch requires 500 parts, 10 direct manufacturing labor hours, and 5 minutes of inspection time.
A) $12.15 per remote control
B) $1215 per remote control
C) $24.30 per remote control
D) $48.60 per remote control

Gregory Enterprises has identified three cost pools to allocate overhead costs. The following estimates are provided for the coming year:
Cost PoolOverhead CostsCost driverActivity level
Supervision of direct labor$320,000Direct labor-hours800,000
Machine maintenance$120,000Machine-hours960,000
Facility rent$200,000Square feet of area100,000
Total overhead costs$640,000
The accounting records show the Mossman Job consumed the following resources:
Cost driverActual level
Direct labor-hours200
Machine-hours1,600
Square feet of area50
27) If Gregory Enterprises uses the three activity cost pools to allocate overhead costs, what are the activity-cost driver rates for supervision of direct labor, machine maintenance, and facility rent, respectively?
A) $0.60 per dlh, $0.025 per mh, $0.80 per sq ft
B) $1.25 per dlh, $0.25 per mh, $0.50 per sq ft
C) $0.40 per dlh, $0.05 per mh, $0.20 per sq ft
D) $0.40 per dlh, $0.125 per mh, $2 per sq ft
28) Using the three cost pools to allocate overhead costs, what is the total amount of overhead costs to be allocated to the Mossman Job?
A) $200
B) $380
C) $675
D) $170
Answer the following questions using the information below:
Velshi Printers has contracts to complete weekly supplements required by forty-six customers. For the year 2010, manufacturing overhead cost estimates total $840,000 for an annual production capacity of 12 million pages.
For 2010 Velshi Printers has decided to evaluate the use of additional cost pools. After analyzing manufacturing overhead costs, it was determined that number of design changes, setups, and inspections are the primary manufacturing overhead cost drivers. The following information was gathered during the analysis:
Cost poolManufacturing overhead costsActivity level
Design changes$ 120,000300 design changes
Setups640,0005,000 setups
Inspections80,0008,000 inspections
Total manufacturing overhead costs$840,000
During 2010, two customers, Money Managers and Hospital Systems, are expected to use the following printing services:
ActivityMoney ManagersHospital Systems
Pages60,00076,000
Design changes100
Setups2010
Inspections3038
29) Assuming activity-cost pools are used, what are the activity-cost driver rates for design changes, setups, and inspections cost pools?
A) $400 per change, $128 per setup, $10 per inspection
B) $360 per change, $320 per setup, $6.40 per inspection
C) $168 per change, $538 per setup, $42 per inspection
D) $286 per change, $152 per setup, $20 per inspection
30) Using the three cost pools to allocate overhead costs, what is the total manufacturing overhead cost estimate for Money Managers during 2010?
A) $13,700
B) $6,500
C) $6,860
D) $10,192
