Doaktown Products manufactures fishing equipment for recreational uses. The Miramichi plant produces the companys two versions of a special reel used for river fishing. The two models are the M-008, a basic reel, and the M-123, a new and improved version. Cost accountants at company headquarters have prepared costs for the two reels for the most recent period. The plant manager is concerned. The cost report does not coincide with her intuition about the relative costs of the two models. She has asked you to review the cost accounting and help her prepare a response to headquarters.

Manufacturing overhead is currently assigned to products based on their direct labor costs. For the most recent month, manufacturing overhead was $329,600. During that time, the company produced 13,600 units of the M-008 and 2,800 units of the M-123. The direct costs of production were as follows:

	M-008		M-123		Total
Direct materials	$	108,800	$	112,000	$	220,800
Direct labor		108,800		56,000		164,800

Management determined that overhead costs are caused by three cost drivers. These drivers and their costs for last year were as follows:

			Activity Level
Cost Driver		Costs		M-008		M-123		Total
Number of machine-hours	$	156,600		1,000		9,000		10,000
Number of production runs		80,000		10		30		40
Number of inspections		93,000		25		40		65
Total overhead	$	329,600
