Use an Excel spreadsheet to determine the amount of indirect costs that would be attributable to each product line using activity-based costing (ABC). Data is in the ABC Analysis tab of the Blue Ridge Case Data file.
Using sales, variable product costs, and commissions originally given (in the Segmented Income Statement tab of the Excel file), and your findings from part one, recalculate the profitability of each product line (using an Excel spreadsheet). You will basically be replacing the indirect cost row in the spreadsheet in the Segmented Income Statement with your answers to part one, and recalculating income for each product line. The total indirect costs and the total income will be the same. The amounts for each product line will just be different than those originally given.
