Kitchen Supply, Inc. (KSI), manufactures three types of flatware: institutional, standard, and silver. It applies all indirect costs according to a predetermined rate based on direct labor-hours. A consultant recently suggested that the company switch to an activity-based costing system and prepared the following cost estimates for year 2 for the recommended cost drivers.

Activity	Recommended Cost Driver	Estimated Cost			Estimated Cost Driver Activity
Processing orders	Number of orders	$	52,875		225	orders
Setting up production	Number of production runs		144,000		80	runs
Handling materials	Pounds of materials used		280,000		100,000	pounds
Machine depreciation and maintenance	Machine-hours		240,000		12,000	hours
Performing quality control	Number of inspections		55,600		40	inspections
Packing	Number of units		138,000		460,000	units
Total estimated cost		$	910,475

In addition, management estimated 7,800 direct labor-hours for year 2.

Assume that the following cost driver volumes occurred in January year 2:

	Institutional			Standard			Silver
Number of units produced		57,000			27,000			8,000
Direct materials costs	$	43,000		$	23,000		$	15,000
Direct labor-hours		480			420			560
Number of orders		13			10			6
Number of production runs		2			2			7
Pounds of material		16,000			5,000			3,000
Machine-hours		580			140			70
Number of inspections		3			3			3
Units shipped		57,000			27,000			8,000

Actual labor costs were $14 per hour.

Required:

(a)	(1)	Compute a predetermined overhead rate for year 2 for each cost driver using the estimated costs and estimated cost driver units prepared by the consultant. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

(2)	Compute a predetermined rate for year 2 using direct labor-hours as the allocation base. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

(b)	Compute the production costs for each product for January using direct labor-hours as the allocation base and the predetermined rate computed in requirement (a)(2). (Round "Indirect costs" to the nearest dollar.)

(c)	Compute the production costs for each product for January using the cost drivers recommended by the consultant and the predetermined rates computed in requirement ( a ). ( Note: Do not assume that total overhead applied to products in January will be the same for activity-based costing as it was for the labor-hour-based allocation.)
