Required informotion (The following infoumation applies to the questions displayed below; For many years, Thomson Company manufactured a single product called LEC 40. Then three years ago, the company automated a portion of its plant and at the same time introduced a second product called LEC 90 that has become increasingly populat. The LEC 90is a more complex product. requlring 0.60 hours of direct labor time per unit to manufacture and extensive machining in the automated portion of the plant. The LEC 40 requires only 0.20 hours of direct. labor time per unit and only a small amount of machining. Manufacturing overheod costs are currently assigned to products on the basis of direct labor-hours. Despite the growing popularity of the company's new LEC 90. profits have been declining steadily. Management is: beginning to believe that there may be a problem with the comparyy's costing system. Direct material and direct labor. costs per unit are as follows: management esumates that the cornpany will incur $952,000 in manufacturing overhead costs during the curtent yea and 80,000 units of the L.EC 40 and 40,000 units of the LEC 90 will be produced and soid 1-a, Compute the predetermined overhead rate assuming that the company continues to apply manufacturing overhead cost on the basis of direct labor-hours. i-b. Using this rate and other data from the problem, determine the unit product cost of each product. Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below. Compute the predetermined overhead rate assuming that the company continues to apply manufacturing overhead cost on the basis of direct labor-hours. (Round your answer to.2 decimal places.) Using this rate and other data from the problem, determine the unit product cost of each product. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.) 2. Management is considering using activity based costing to assign manufacturing overhead cost to products. The activity based costing system would have the following four activity cost pools: Determine the activity rate for each of the four activity cost pooks. (Round your answers to 2 decimol places.) and 80,000 units of the LEC 4U and 40,000 units of the LEC 90 wil be produced and sold. 3. Using the activity rates you computed in part (2), do the following: a. Determine the per unit amount of manufacturing overhead cost that would be assigned lo each product using the activity based costing system. b. Compute the unit product cost of each product. Complete this guestion by entering your answers in the tabs below. Using the actiyity rates you computed in part (2), determine the per-unit amoont of manufacturing overhesd cost that woild be assigned to each product ising the activity-baved costing system. (Do not round Intermediate calculationsisi Round your answers to 2 docimol places.) Using the activity rates you computed in part (2), compute the unit product cost of each product. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places)
