Greenwood Company manufactures two products—13,000 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 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 $ 231,600 12,000 MHs Machine setups Number of setups $ 55,900 130 setups Production design Number of products $ 77,000 2 products General factory Direct labor-hours $ 364,500 15,000 DLHs Activity Measure Product Y Product Z Machining 6,300 5,700 Number of setups 40 90 Number of products 1 1 Direct labor-hours 7,300 7,700

Solution 9:
Total manufacturing overhead cost assigned to Product Y is:
| Activity | Overhead Cost | Activity Drivers | Activity Rate | ||
| Machining | 2,31,600 | 12,000 | Machine hours | 19.30 | per hour | 
| Machine setups | 55,900 | 130 | Number of setups | 430.00 | per setup | 
| Production design | 77,000 | 2 | Number of products | 38500.00 | per inspection | 
| General factory | 3,64,500 | 15,000 | Direct labour hours | 24.30 | per hour | 
| Product Y | ||
| Machining | 6,300 | 1,21,590 | 
| Machine setups | 40 | 17,200 | 
| Production design | 1 | 38,500 | 
| General factory | 7,300 | 1,77,390 | 
| Total manufacturing overhead | 3,54,680 | |
Solution 10:
Total manufacturing overhead cost assigned to Product Z is:
| Product Z | ||
| Machining | 5,700 | 1,10,010 | 
| Machine setups | 90 | 38,700 | 
| Production design | 1 | 38,500 | 
| General factory | 7,700 | 1,87,110 | 
| Total manufacturing overhead | 3,74,320 | |
Solution 11:
Total overhead cost is allocated to Product Y and Product Z using plantwide rate is:
| Product Y | Product Z | Total | |
| Total cost | 354780 | 374220 | 7,29,000 | 
| Direct labour hours | 7,300 | 7,700 | |
| 48.67% | 51.33% | 
Solution 12:
Using the ABC system, percentage of the Machining costs assigned to Product Y and Product Z is:
| Product Y | Product Z | Total | |
| Machining Cost | 121590 | 110010 | 2,31,600 | 
| Machining hours | 6,300 | 5,700 | 12,000 | 
| 52.50% | 47.50% |
