Green Thumb Gardening is a small gardening service that uses activity-based costing to estimate costs for pricing and other purposes. The proprietor of the company believes that costs are driven primarily by the size of customer lawns, the size of customer garden beds, the distance to travel to customers, and the number of customers. In addition, the costs of maintaining garden beds depends on whether the beds are low maintenance beds (mainly ordinary trees and shrubs) or high maintenance beds (mainly flowers and exotic plants). Accordingly, the company uses the five activity cost pools listed below:
| Activity Cost Pool | Activity Measure |
| Caring for lawn | Square feet of lawn |
| Caring for garden beds–low maintenance | Square feet of low maintenance beds |
| Caring for garden beds–high maintenance | Square feet of high maintenance beds |
| Travel to jobs | Miles |
| Customer billing and service | Number of customers |
The company already has completed its first stage allocations of costs and has summarized its annual costs and activity as follows:
| Activity Cost Pool | Estimated Overhead Cost |

SecuriCorp operates a fleet of armored cars that make scheduled pickups and deliveries in the Los Angeles area. The company is implementing an activity-based costing system that has four activity cost pools: Travel, Pickup and Delivery, Customer Service, and Other. The activity measures are miles for the Travel cost pool, number of pickups and deliveries for the Pickup and Delivery cost pool, and number of customers for the Customer Service cost pool. The Other cost pool has no activity measure because it is an organization-sustaining activity. The following costs will be assigned using the activity-based costing system:
| Driver and guard wages | $ | 880,000 |
| Vehicle operating expense | 310,000 | |
| Vehicle depreciation | 190,000 | |
| Customer representative salaries and expenses | 220,000 | |

Required:
Make a Job Cost Sheet for the Standard Units. Use the following Direct Materials and Direct Labor information.
- Direct Materials $5,987
- Direct Labor $7,821
For Overhead, computer overhead rates for each of the three activities. Hint, you will divide each activity's budgeted cost by the TOTAL amount of that activity's cost driver. So you will need to add Purchases for Standard and Deluxe to get the total denominator for that activity. (Round activity rate and cost per unit answers to 2 decimal places.)
Your Job Cost Sheet will include:
Direct Materials
+ Direct Labor
+ Overhead for Purchasing
+ Overhead for Designing
+ Overhead for Shipping
= Total Job Cost
/ Units Produced
= Per Unit Cost
The answer you type in will be the Per Unit Cost of the Standard Units. Round your answer to the nearest 2 decimal places
