Rodent Corporation produces two types of computer mice, wired and wireless. The wired mice are designed as low-cost, reliable input devices. The company only recently began producing the higher-quality wireless model. Since the introduction of the new product, profits have been steadily declining. Management believes that the accounting system is not accurately allocating costs to products, particularly because sales of the new product have been increasing.

Management has asked you to investigate the cost allocation problem. You find that manufacturing overhead is currently assigned to products based on their direct labor costs. For your investigation, you have data from last year. Manufacturing overhead was $360,000 based on production of 140,000 wired mice and 50,000 wireless mice. Direct labor and direct materials costs were as follows:

	Wired			Wireless			Total
Direct labor	$	290,100		$	109,900		$	400,000
Materials		187,500			171,000			358,500

Management has determined that overhead costs are caused by three cost drivers. These drivers and their costs for last year are as follows:

				Activity Level
Cost Driver	Costs Assigned			Wired	Wireless	Total
Number of production runs	$	165,000		20	5	25
Quality tests performed		148,500		6	9	15
Shipping orders processed		46,500		50	25	75
Total overhead	$	360,000

Required:
(a)	How much overhead will be assigned to each product if these three cost drivers are used to allocate overhead? What is the total cost per unit produced for each product? (Round "Total Cost Per Unit" to 2 decimal places.)

Wired $______________ $__________________

Wireless $______________ $__________________

(b) How much overhead will be assigned to each product if direct labor cost is used to allocate overhead? What is the total cost per unit produced for each product? (Round "Total Cost Per Unit" to 2 decimal places.)
