Both the current and previous cost system reported low profit margins of the product J, which is company's highest-selling product. The management accountant has recently attended a conference on activity based costing, and the overheads cost for the last period have been analyzed by the major activities in order to compute activity based costs.From the above information you are required:(a) Compute the product costs using traditional volume related cost system based on assumption that:(1) All overheads are recovered on the basis of direct labor hours (i.e. the company's past product costing system);(2) The overheads of the receiving department are recovered by materials handling overhead rate and the remaining overheads are recovered using a machine hour rate (i.e. the company's current costing system).(b) Compute product cost using an ABC system.
