Calculate the activity cost allocation rate for each of the five pools listed in the table. 2. Calculate the total cost of Job #624 (use an ABC costing system). 3. Why would ABC provide a more accurate allocation of manufacturing overhead (MOH) than a plantwide rate? 4. Assume that Chaney Products used a traditional costing system rather than an ABC system. Its plantwide MOH rate would have been determined using direct labor (DL) hours as the allocation base. How much cost distortion would have occurred on this job?
