Hazelnut Corp. manufactures lawn ornaments. It currently has two product lines, the basic and the luxury. Hazelnut has a total of $133,434 in overhead.

The company has identified the following information about its overhead activity cost pools and the two product lines:

Activity Cost Pools	Cost Driver	Cost Assigned to Pool				Quantity/Amount Consumed by Basic	Quantity/Amount Consumed by Luxury
Materials handling	Number of moves		$	3,724		13 moves	63 moves
Quality control	Number of inspections		$	29,610		200 inspections	100 inspections
Machine maintenance	Number of machine hours		$	100,100		5,800 machine hours	3,300 machine hours

Required: 1. Suppose Hazelnut used a traditional costing system with machine hours as the cost driver. Determine the amount of overhead assigned to each product line. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answers to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

Basic Model		Overhead Assigned
Luxury Model		Overhead Assigned

2. Calculate the activity rates for each cost pool in Hazelnuts ABC system. (Round your answers to the nearest whole dollar.)

	Activity Rates
Materials Handling		per Move
Quality Control		per Inspection
Machine Maintenance		per Machine Hour

3. Calculate the amount of overhead that Hazelnut will assign to the basic line if it uses an ABC system. (Round your intermediate and final answers to the nearest whole dollar.)

Basic Model
Materials Handling
Quality Control
Machine Maintenance
Total Overhead Assigned	$0

4. Determine the amount of overhead Hazelnut will assign to the luxury line if it uses an ABC system. (Round your intermediate and final answers to the nearest whole dollar.)

Luxury Model
