Digiprint Corporation owns a small printing press that prints leaflets, brochures, and advertising materials. Digiprint classifies its various printing jobs as standard jobs or special jobs. (Click the icon to view additional information.) Digiprint's simple job-costing system has two direct-cost categories (direct materials and direct labor) and a single indirect-cost pool. Digiprint operates at capacity and allocates all indirect costs using printing machine-hours as the allocation base. Digiprint is concerned about the accuracy of the costs assigned to standard and special jobs and therefore is planning to implement an activity-based costing system. Digiprint's ABC system would have the same direct-cost categories as its simple costing system. However, instead of a single indirect-cost pool there would now be six categories for assigning indirect costs: design, purchasing, setup, printing machine operations, marketing, and administration. To see how activity-based costing would affect the costs of standard and special jobs, Digiprint collects the following information for the fiscal year 2017 that just ended.
