Spencer's Sports manufactures outdoor equipment at three regional plants. The Freeway Plant produces two models of fishing reels, the Stream and the Surf. The Surf model is heavier and more durable. Overhead costs are currently allocated using direct labor cost. The plant manager has just returned from a week$-$long executive course where the instructor discussed product costing and, specifically, activity$-$based costing $($ABC$).$ The plant manager has asked the plant controller about implementing ABC at the plant. The controller has collected the following information on plant overhead for the most recent period:

Activity Cost Driver Cost Cost Driver Volume

Stream Surf

Setting up Number of setups $ $194,40015135$

Inspecting Number of inspections $145,8003645$

Packing and shipping Number of packages shipped $91,80050200$

Total overhead $ $432,000$

The controller also collected the following information on production volume and direct costs for each product:

Stream Surf Total

Units produced $18,0004,50022,500$

Direct materials cost $ $450,000$ $ $337,500$ $ $787,500$

Direct labor cost $225,000315,000540,000$

Total direct cost $ $675,000$ $ $652,500$ $ $1,327,500$

Required:

Compute the unit cost of each model under the current system.

Compute the unit cost of each model under the ABC system suggested by the controller's classification of overhead costs.
