The Foundational 15 [LO7-1, LO7-3, LO7-4]

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

Hickory Company manufactures two products13,000 units of Product Y and 5,000 units of Product Z. The company uses a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor-hours. It is considering implementing an activity-based costing (ABC) system that allocates all $684,000 of its manufacturing overhead to four cost pools. The following additional information is available for the company as a whole and for Products Y and Z:

Activity Cost Pool	Activity Measure	Estimated Overhead Cost		Expected Activity
Machining	Machine-hours	$	235,200	12,000	MHs
Machine setups	Number of setups	$	73,600	160	setups
Product design	Number of products	$	80,000	2	products
General factory	Direct labor-hours	$	295,200	14,400	DLHs

Activity Measure	Product Y	Product Z
Machine-hours	6,600	5,400
Number of setups	40	120
Number of products	1	1
Direct labor-hours	7,600	6,800

1. What is the companys plantwide overhead rate? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

2. Using the plantwide overhead rate, how much manufacturing overhead cost is allocated to Product Y and Product Z? (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and your final answers to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

3. What is the activity rate for the Machining activity cost pool? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

4. What is the activity rate for the Machine Setups activity cost pool?

5. What is the activity rate for the Product Design activity cost pool?

10. Using the ABC system, how much total manufacturing overhead cost would be assigned to Product Z?

11. Using the plantwide overhead rate, what percentage of the total overhead cost is allocated to Product Y and Product Z? (Round your "Percentage" answers to 2 decimal place.)

12. Using the ABC system, what percentage of the Machining costs is assigned to Product Y and Product Z? (Round your "Percentage" answers to 2 decimal places.)

13. Using the ABC system, what percentage of Machine Setups cost is assigned to Product Y and Product Z? (Round your "Percentage" answers to 2 decimal places.)

14. Using the ABC system, what percentage of the Product Design cost is assigned to Product Y and Product Z?

15. Using the ABC system, what percentage of the General Factory cost is assigned to Product Y and Product Z? (Round your "Percentage" answers to 2 decimal place.)
