Current Attempt in Progress

Crane, Inc. produces two types of gas grills: a family model and a deluxe model. Crane's controller has decided to use a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor costs. The president of the company recently heard of activity$-$based costing and wants to see how the results would differ if this system were used. Two activity cost pools were d veloped: machining and machine setup. Presented below is information related to the company's operations:
