Wilkins Inc. has two types of handbags: standard and custom. The controller has decided to use a
plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor costs. The president has heard of activity-based
costing and wants to see how the results would differ if this system were used. Two activity cost pools
were developed: machining and machine setup. Presented below is information related to the
company s operations.
Standard Custom
Direct labor costs $43,700 $102,000
Machine hours 1,500 1,380
Setup hours 96 440

Total estimated overhead costs are $298,400. Overhead cost allocated to the machining activity cost

(b) Compute the overhead rates using the activity-based costing approach.
(c) Determine the difference in allocation between the two approaches. ...Read Less
