Hickory Company manufactures two products14,000 units of Product Y and 6,000 units of Product Z. The company uses a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor-hours. It is considering implementing an activity-based costing (ABC) system that allocates all $748,800 of its manufacturing overhead to four cost pools. The following additional information is available for the company as a whole and for Products Y and Z:

Activity Cost Pool	Activity Measure	Estimated Overhead Cost	Expected Activity
Machining	Machine-hours	$ 206,000	10,000	MHs
Machine setups	Number of setups	$ 145,600	260	setups
Product design	Number of products	$ 90,000	2	products
General factory	Direct labor-hours	$ 307,200	12,000	DLHs

Activity Measure	Product Y	Product Z
Machine-hours	7,600	2,400
Number of setups	50	210
Number of products	1	1
Direct labor-hours	8,600	3,400

Required:

1. What is the companys plantwide overhead rate?

2. Using the plantwide overhead rate, how much manufacturing overhead cost is allocated to Product Y and Product Z?

3. What is the activity rate for the Machining activity cost pool?

4. What is the activity rate for the Machine Setups activity cost pool?

5. What is the activity rate for the Product Design activity cost pool?

6. What is the activity rate for the General Factory activity cost pool?

7. Which of the four activities is a batch-level activity?

8. Which of the four activities is a product-level activity?

9. Using the ABC system, how much total manufacturing overhead cost is assigned to Product Y?

10. Using the ABC system, how much total manufacturing overhead cost is assigned to Product Z?

11. Using the plantwide overhead rate, what percentage of the total overhead cost is allocated to Product Y and Product Z?

12. Using the ABC system, what percentage of the Machining costs is assigned to Product Y and Product Z?

13. Using the ABC system, what percentage of Machine Setups cost is assigned to Product Y and Product Z?

14. Using the ABC system, what percentage of the Product Design cost is assigned to Product Y and Product Z?

15. Using the ABC system, what percentage of the General Factory cost is assigned to Product Y and Product Z?

Thank you so much!
