EMD Corporation manufactures two products, Product S and Product W. Product W is of fairly recent origin, having been developed as an attempt to enter a market closely related to that of Product W. Product W is the more complex of the two products, requiring 2 hours of direct labor time per unit to manufacture compared to 1 hour of direct labor time for Product S. Product W is produced on an automated production line.

Overhead is currently assigned to the products on the basis of direct-labor-hours. The company estimated it would incur $888,455 in manufacturing overhead costs and produce 15,200 units of Product W and 60,800 units of Product S during the current year. Unit cost for materials and direct labor are:

	Product S			Product W
Direct material	$	13		$	30
Direct labor		14			19

Required:

a-1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate under the current method of allocation.

a-2. Determine the unit product cost of each product for the current year.

b. The company's overhead costs can be attributed to four major activities. These activities and the amount of overhead cost attributable to each for the current year are given below:

			Total Activity
Activity Cost Pool	Total Cost		Product S	Product W	Total
Machine setups required	$	387,260	1,110	1,780	2,890
Purchase orders issued		53,724	565	161	726
Machine-hours required		197,010	7,130	10,780	17,910
Maintenance requests issued		250,461	737	900	1,637
	$	888,455

Using the data above and an activity-based costing approach, determine the unit product cost of each product for the current year.
