Harbour Company makes two models of electronic tablets, the Home and the Work. Basic production information follows: Home Work
Direct materials cost per unit 30 48
Direct labor cost per unit 20 30
Sales price per unit 300 500
Expected production per month 700units 400units
Harbour has monthly overhead of $175,200, which is divided into the following cost pools:
Setup costs $ 68,800
Quality control 58,400
Maintenance 48,000
Total $ 175,200
The company has also compiled the following information about the chosen cost drivers:
Home Work Total
Number of setups 42 58 100
Number of inspections 340 390 730
Number of machine hours 1,700 1,300 3,000
Required:
1. Suppose Harbour uses a traditional costing system with machine hours as the cost driver. Determine the amount of overhead assigned to each product line. (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
2. Calculate the production cost per unit for each of Harbour’s products under a traditional costing system. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.)
3. Calculate Harbour’s gross margin per unit for each product under the traditional costing system.(Round your intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.)
4. Select the appropriate cost driver for each cost pool and calculate the activity rates if Harbour wanted to implement an ABC system.
5. Assuming an ABC system, assign overhead costs to each product based on activity demands.
6. Calculate the production cost per unit for each of Harbour’s products in an ABC system. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.)
7. Calculate Harbour’s gross margin per unit for each product under an ABC system. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.)
8. Compare the gross margin of each product under the traditional system and ABC. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

1. Overhead rate, using traditional costing system with machine hours as the cost driver:

Predetermined rate = $175,200/3,000 = $58.40

Overhead Cost assigned to each product:

                                      Home            Work

Expected production   1,700              1,300

Cost assigned =         $99,280      $75,920

2. Production cost per unit:

                                              Home                        Work

Expected production            700 units                   400 units

Direct materials cost $21,000 (30 * 700)     $19,200 (48 * 400)

Direct labor cost          14,000 (20 * 700)       12,000 (30 * 400)

Overhead cost            99,280                        75,920

Total costs               $134,280                     $107,120

Cost per unit             $191.83                       $267.80

3. Gross margin per unit:

                                      Home                        Work

Sales price per unit     $300.00                  $500.00

Cost price per unit          191.83                     267.80

Gross margin per unit  $108.17                   $232.20

4. Activity Rates, using ABC system:

Cost Pools:                          Cost Drivers                     Usage     Rates

Setup costs     $ 68,800  Number of setups                   100     $688

Quality control   58,400  Number of inspections           730     $80

Maintenance     48,000   Number of machine hours 3,000     $16

5. Assignment of overhead costs to each product, using ABC:

                                         Rate      Home                        Work

Setup costs     $ 68,800  $688  $28,896 (42* $688) $39,904 (58*$688)

Quality control   58,400  $80       27,200 (340*$80)     31,200 (390*$80)

Maintenance     48,000   $16       27,200 (1,700*$16)    20,800 (1,300*$16)

Total overhead $175,200         $104,096                      $91,904

6. Production costs:

                                              Home                        Work

Expected production            700 units                   400 units

Direct materials cost $21,000 (30 * 700)     $19,200 (48 * 400)

Direct labor cost          14,000 (20 * 700)       12,000 (30 * 400)

Cost per unit             $198.71                        $307.76

7. Gross margin per unit:

                                      Home                        Work

Sales price per unit     $300.00                  $500.00

Cost price per unit         198.71                       307.76

Gross margin per unit $101.29                    $192.24

8. Gross margins per unit compared:

                                              Home                        Work

Traditional costing system  $108.17                   $232.20

ABC costing system           $101.29                    $192.24

ABC system looks more equitable than the traditional costing system as the gross margin per unit is reduced for each product line.

you don't if you paid you paid. it's like if i bought a computer and used it then i say idon't want it anymore so im gonna return it. you can't. unlkess you have your reciept

answer; the inspector may have found some violation that could cause death or some kind of serious injury;
