Direct labor-hours per unit		1.2	DLHs		1.0	DLHs
Estimated annual production and sales		25,000	units		72,000	units

The company has a traditional costing system in which manufacturing overhead is applied to units based on direct labor-hours. Data concerning manufacturing overhead and direct labor-hours for the upcoming year appear below:

Estimated total manufacturing overhead	$	2,040,000
Estimated total direct labor-hours		102,000	DLHs

Required:

1. Compute the product margins for the Xtreme and the Pathfinder products under the companys traditional costing system.

2. The company is considering replacing its traditional costing system with an activity-based costing system that would assign its manufacturing overhead to the following four activity cost pools (the Other cost pool includes organization-sustaining costs and idle capacity costs):

	Estimated Overhead Cost			Expected Activity
Activities and Activity Measures				Xtreme	Pathfinder	Total
Supporting direct labor (direct labor-hours)	$	622,200		30,000	72,000	102,000
Batch setups (setups)		644,000		250	210	460
Product sustaining (number of products)		700,000		1	1	2
Other		73,800		NA	NA	NA
Total manufacturing overhead cost	$	2,040,000

Compute the product margins for the Xtreme and the Pathfinder products under the activity-based costing system.

3. Prepare a quantitative comparison of the traditional and activity-based cost assignments.

Compute the product margins for the Xtreme and the Pathfinder products under the companys traditional costing system. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and final answers to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

	Xtreme	Pathfinder	Total
Product margin			$0
