[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]

Cane Company manufactures two products called Alpha and Beta that sell for $170 and $130, respectively. Each product uses only one type of raw material that costs $6 per pound. The company has the capacity to annually produce 116,000 units of each product. Its unit costs for each product at this level of activity are given below:

	Alpha				Beta
Direct materials		$	30			$	18
Direct labor			30				25
Variable manufacturing overhead			20				15
Traceable fixed manufacturing overhead			26				28
Variable selling expenses			22				18
Common fixed expenses			25				20
Total cost per unit		$	153			$	124

The company considers its traceable fixed manufacturing overhead to be avoidable, whereas its common fixed expenses are deemed unavoidable and have been allocated to products based on sales dollars.
