4 45 5 D Bennett Clinic has two patient service (mission) departments, internal medicine and pediatrics. These departments are supported by the finance department, the housekeeping department, and the general administration department. The following data have been assembled by the practice manager. A 6 Department 7 General Administration 8 Finance 9 Housekeeping 10 Internal Medicine 11 Pediatrics 12 345 B Direct Costs $ $ $ $ 200,000 150,000 100,000 500,000 650,000 # of housekeeping hours # of invoices/bills 30 50 50 100 150 50 20 100 2000 2500 FTES E 2350 15 Assume the clinic uses a step-down method of cost allocation with general administration first, finance second and housekeeping third. The practice manager has determined that the cost driver for housekeeping is the number of housekeeping hours, the cost driver for finance is the number of invoices/bills generated, and the cost driver for general administration is FTES. Using the step-down method, allocate all support (service) department costs to the patient service (mission) departments and determine each mission department's total (full) costs.
