Way Cool produces two different models of air conditioners. The company produces the mechanical systems in its components department. The mechanical systems are combined with the housing assembly in its finishing department. The activities, costs, and drivers associated with these two manufacturing processes and the production support process follow. Process Activity Overhead Cost Driver Quantity Components Changeover $ 500,000 Number of batches 800 Machining 279,000 Machine hours 6,000 Setups 225,000 Number of setups 120 $ 1,004,000 Finishing Welding $ 180,300 Welding hours 3,000 Inspecting 210,000 Number of inspections 700 Rework 75,000 Rework orders 300 $ 465,300 Support Purchasing $ 135,000 Purchase orders 450 Providing space 32,000 Number of units 5,000 Providing utilities 65,000 Number of units 5,000 $ 232,000 Additional production information concerning its two product lines follows.

Using ABC, compute the overhead cost per unit for each product line. 2. Determine the total cost per unit for each product line if the direct labor and direct materials costs per unit are $250 for Model 145 and $180 for Model 212. 3. If the market price for Model 145 is $820 and the market price for Model 212 is $480, determine the profit or loss per unit for each model.

Answer:

Way Cool

1. Using ABC, the overhead cost per unit for each product line:

Model 145 Model 212

Overhead cost per unit $496.19 $245.72

2. The total cost per unit for each product line, if the direct labor and direct materials costs per unit are $250 for Model 145 and $180 for Model 212:

Model 145 Model 212

Total cost per unit $746.19 $425.72

3. If the market price for Model 145 is $820 and the market price for Model 212 is $480, the profit or loss per unit for each model:

Model 145 Model 212

Profit per unit $73.81 $54.28

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Process Activity Overhead Cost Driver Quantity

Components Changeover $ 500,000 Number of batches 800

Machining 279,000 Machine hours 6,000

Setups 225,000 Number of setups 120

Total $ 1,004,000

Finishing

Welding $ 180,300 Welding hours 3,000

Inspecting 210,000 Number of inspections 700

Rework 75,000 Rework orders 300

Total $ 465,300

Support

Purchasing $ 135,000 Purchase orders 450

Providing space 32,000 Number of units 5,000

Providing utilities 65,000 Number of units 5,000

Total $ 232,000

Additional production information concerning its two product lines follows:

Model 145 Model 212 Total

Units produced 1,500 3,500 5,000

Welding hours 800 2,200 3,000

Batches 400 400 800

Number of inspections 400 300 700

Machine hours 1,800 4,200 6,000

Setups 60 60 120

Rework orders 160 140 300

Purchase orders 300 150 450

Overhead Rates per Activity Pool:

Components Changeover $ 500,000/800 = $625

Machining 279,000/6,000 = $46.50

Setups 225,000/120 = $1,875

Total $ 1,004,000

Finishing

Welding $ 180,300/3,000 = $60.10

Inspecting 210,000/700 = $300

Rework 75,000/300 = $250

Total $ 465,300

Support

Purchasing $ 135,000/450 = $300

Providing space 32,000/5,000 = $6.40

Providing utilities 65,000/5,000 = $13

Total $ 232,000

Total overheads = $

Model 145 Model 212

Units produced 1,500 3,500

Welding hours $48,080 (800*$60.10) $132,220 (2,200*$60.10)

Batches 250,000 (400*$625) 250,000 (400*$625)

Number of inspections 120,000 (400*$300) 90,000 (300*$300)

Machine hours 83,700 (1,800*$46.50) 195,300 (4,200*$46.50)

Setups 112,500 (60*$1,875) 112,500 (60*$1,875)

Rework orders 40,000 (160*$250) 35,000 (140*$250)

Purchase orders 90,000 (300*$300) 45,000 (150*$300)

Total overhead costs $744,280 $860,020

Units produced 1,500 3,500

Overhead cost per unit $496.19 $245.72

Total production costs:

Model 145 Model 212

Direct costs per unit $250 $180

Total direct costs $375,000 $630,000

Total overhead costs $744,280 $860,020

Total production costs $1,119,280 $1,490,020

Units produced 1,500 3,500

Total cost per unit $746.19 $425.72
