(b) TABLE 2 shows the cost drivers, the quantity and unit cost of the cost driver, and total activity cost. For two products A and B it is found that: The direct labour hours for products A and B are the same. It takes approximately four times as many machining hours in both cost centres to produce product B as product A. Product A requires one quarter of the materials purchased for B. Product A requires one third of the total Delivery notes/invoices. Product A has issued one third of the total materials issued per production run. Product A has issued one half of the planning per production run of that required by Product B. Product B requires twice as many machine set-ups as product A. The products have the same number of quality control inspections. omnany If the company produces 50 000 each of products A and B: (1) Complete TABLE 2 to determine the cost driver unit costings in column 5 for the activities of column 1. Show also the product quantity splits in column 4 of each activity for product A and B (e.g. quantity of cost driver Activity Centre 1 is shown as split 100 000 product A and 400 000 product B). (ii) Determine the overhead activity cost allocations to products A and B (using the activity proportions calculated in column 4) by completing TABLE 3. (iii) Determine the total overhead allocations to products A and B. (iv) Find the per unit product overhead cost allocations for each product.
