Younan Corporation manufactures two products: Product E47F and Product D02M. The company is considering implementing an activity-based costing (ABC) system that allocates its manufacturing overhead to four cost pools. The following additional information is available for the company as a whole and for Products E47F and D02M.

Activity Cost Pool Activity Measure Total Cost Total Activity
Machining Machine-hours $ 165,000 11,000 MHs
Machine setups Number of setups $ 150,000 250 setups
Product design Number of products $ 70,000 2 products
Order size Direct labor-hours $ 310,000 10,000 DLHs

Activity Measure Product E47F Product D02M
Machine-hours 5,000 6,000
Number of setups 200 50
Number of products 1 1
Direct labor-hours 4,000 6,000

Using the ABC system, the percentage of the total overhead cost that is assigned to Product D02M is closest to:

Tomasini Corporation has provided the following data from its activity-based costing accounting system:

Supervisory wages $ 660,000
Factory supplies $ 280,000

Distribution of Resource Consumption across Activity Cost Pools:

Activity Cost Pools Batch Processing Unit Processing Other Total
Supervisory wages 20% 70% 10% 100%
Factory supplies 45% 35% 20% 100%

The "Other" activity cost pool consists of the costs of idle capacity and organization-sustaining costs that are not assigned to products.

How much supervisory wages and factory supplies cost would NOT be assigned to products using the activity-based costing system?

Addleman Corporation has an activity-based costing system with three activity cost pools--Processing, Supervising, and Other. In the first stage allocations, costs in the two overhead accounts, equipment expense and indirect labor, are allocated to the three activity cost pools based on resource consumption. Data used in the first stage allocations follow:

Overhead costs:
Equipment expense $ 73,000
Indirect labor $ 1,000

Distribution of Resource Consumption Across Activity Cost Pools:

Activity Cost Pools
Processing Supervising Other
Equipment expense 0.20 0.10 0.70
Indirect labor 0.20 0.20 0.60

Processing costs are assigned to products using machine-hours (MHs) and Supervising costs are assigned to products using the number of batches. The costs in the Other activity cost pool are not assigned to products. Activity data for the company's two products follow:

Activity:

MHs (Processing) Batches (Supervising)
Product W3 7,600 100
Product H3 2,400 900
Total 10,000 1,000

Finally, the costs of Processing and Supervising are combined with the following sales and direct cost data to determine product margins.

Sales and Direct Cost Data:

Product W3 Product H3
Sales (total) $ 159,500 $ 154,100
Direct materials (total) $ 66,300 $ 55,300
Direct labor (total) $ 77,800 $ 84,100

The activity rate for the Supervising activity cost pool under activity-based costing is closest to:
