Activity-Based Costing for a hospital

Deer Lodge Regional Hospital plans to use activity-based costing to assign hospital indirect costs to the care of patients. The hospital has identified the following activities and activity rates for the hospital indirect costs:

Room and meals	$211	per day
Radiology	$298	per image
Pharmacy	$46	per physician order
Chemistry lab	$84	per test

The records of two representative patients were analyzed, using the activity rates. The activity information associated with the two patients is as follows:

	Patient Franklin		Patient Kramer

Number of images	3	images	7	images
Number of physician orders	5	orders	7	orders
Number of tests	2	tests	5	tests
Number of operating room hours	4.5	hours	5.5	hours

Determine the activity cost associated with each patient.
