Only printing costs and sales commissions are variable; all other costs are fixed. The printing costs (which include materials, labor, and variable overhead) are traceable to the three product lines as shown in the income statement above. Sales commissions are 10% of sales. b. The same equipment is used to produce all three books, so the equipment depreciation cost has been allocated equally among the three product lines. An analysis of the company's activities indicates that the equipment is used 20% of the time to produce cookbooks, 40% of the time to produce travel guides, and 40% of the time to produce handy spellers. c. The warehouse is used to store finished units of product, so the rental cost has been allocated to the product lines on the basis of sales dollars. The warehouse rental cost is $3 per square foot per year. The warehouse contains 52,800 square feet of space of which 8,400 square feet is used by the cookbook line, 25,200 square feet by the travel guide line, and 19,200 square feet by the handy speller line. d.
