Traditional and ABC Costing The Patio Heating Company manufacturers two outdoor heaters, Warmer and Hotter. Hotter is a newer heater, having been developed as a more complex version of Warmer. Hotter requires 3 direct labour hours per heater to manufacture, compared to 1.5 direct labour hours per heater for Warmer. Hotter is produced on a highly automated production line. The Patio Heater Company prices both heaters using the unit product cost plus a mark-up of 30 percent. Overhead is currently assigned to the heaters on the basis of direct labour hours. The company estimated it would incur $396,000 in manufacturing overhead costs and produce 5,500 of Hotter and 22,000 of Warmer during the current year.
