Allocating Selling and Administrative Expenses using Activity-Based Costing

Shrute Inc. manufactures office copiers, which are sold to retailers. The price and cost of goods sold for each copier are as follows:

Price	$720	per unit
Cost of goods sold	(430)
Gross profit	$290	per unit

In addition, the company incurs selling and administrative expenses of $226,570. The company wishes to assign these costs to its three major retail customers, The Warehouse, Kosmo Co., and Supply Universe. These expenses are related to its three major nonmanufacturing activities: customer service, sales order processing, and advertising support. The advertising support is in the form of advertisements that are placed by Shrute Inc. to support the retailer's sale of Shrute copiers to consumers. The budgeted activity costs and activity bases associated with these activities are:

Activity		Budgeted Activity Cost		Activity Base
Customer service			$48,000	Number of service requests
Sales order processing			30,070	Number of sales orders
Advertising support			148,500	Number of ads placed
	Total activity cost		$226,570

Activity-base usage and unit volume information for the three customers is as follows:

	The Warehouse	Kosmo Co.	Supply Universe	Total
Number of service requests	70	10	240	320
Number of sales orders	270	120	580	970
Number of ads placed	20	10	80	110
Unit volume	670	670	670	2,010
