GoGo Ltd. manufactures three models of childrens swing sets: Standard, Deluxe, and Super. The Standard set is made of steel, the Deluxe set is made of aluminum, and the Super set is made of a titanium-aluminum alloy. Because of the different materials used, production requirements differ significantly across models in terms of machine types and time requirements. However, once the parts are produced, assembly time per set is similar for the three models. For this reason, GoGo has adopted the practice of allocating overhead costs on the basis of machine hours. Last year, the company produced 5,000 Standard sets, 500 Deluxe sets, and 2,000 Super sets. The company had the following revenues and expenses for the year:

GOGO LTD. Income Statement Year Ended December 31, 2020
Standard Deluxe Super Total
Sales $475,000 $380,000 $560,000 $1,415,000
Direct costs:
Direct materials 200,000 150,000 240,000 590,000
Direct labour 54,000 14,000 24,000 92,000
Variable overhead costs:
Machine set-ups ? ? ? 24,750
Order processing ? ? ? 59,850
Warehouse ? ? ? 91,200
Shipping ? ? ? 33,520
Contribution margin ? ? ? 523,680
Fixed overhead costs:
Plant administration 88,230
Other 183,570
Gross profit $251,880

The chief financial officer of GoGo has hired a consultant to recommend cost allocation bases. The consultant has recommended the following:

Activity Level
Activities Cost Drivers Standard Deluxe Super Total
Machine set-ups No. of production runs 23 12 20 55
Sales order processing No. of sales orders received 320 220 315 855
Warehouse costs No. of units held in inventory 240 125 115 480
Shipping No. of units shipped 5,410 560 2,410 8,380

The consultant found no basis for allocating the plant administration and other fixed overhead costs, and recommended that they not be applied to products. (a) Complete the income statement using the bases recommended by the consultant. Do not allocate any fixed overhead costs. (Round overhead rates to 3 decimal places. e.g. 25.225 and final answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 1525.)
