WoolCo buys sheep’s wool from farmers. The company began operations in January of this year, and is making decisions on product offerings, pricing, and vendors. The company is also examining its method of assigning overhead to products. You’ve just been hired as a production manager at WoolCo.

Currently WoolCo makes three products: (1) raw, clean wool to be used as stuffing or insulation; (2) wool yarn for use in the textile industry, and (3) extra-thick yarn for use in rugs.

The company would like you to evaluate its costing methods for its raw wool and wool yarn. Upper management would also like your recommendations regarding a production decision regarding their current and proposed product lines.

Traditional costing allocates overhead costs to products based upon a predetermined factory overhead rate, which is computed using an estimated activity base such as direct labor hours or machine hours. The rate is computed as follows:

Predetermined Factory Overhead Rate = (Estimated Total Factory Overhead Costs) ÷ (Estimated Activity Base)

WoolCo has been using traditional costing with combing machine hours as the activity base. The company would like to consider activity-based costing. In order to understand their current system better, you evaluate WoolCo’s current method of costing for raw wool and wool yarn. The production staff has compiled the following information for you on the production of 500 pounds of either raw wool or wool yarn:

Total Factory

Total Costs

Overhead Costs

Sorting $25,600
Cleaning 38,400
Combing 1,300

Raw Wool

Hours of combing machine use required 80 20

In the following table, use combing machine hours as the activity base for assigning overhead costs to each product. When required, round your answers to the nearest dollar.

Predetermined factory overhead rate:  per direct labor hour

In order to compare WoolCo’s current traditional method with activity-based costing, you interview the production staff and compile the following information, which relates only to the costs for raw wool and wool yarn. WoolCo wishes to consider costing only for these two products at this time, since they are more established and have more data to evaluate.

Answer the following questions (1) and (2), then fill in table (3).

1. After reviewing your work on the Traditional Costing and Activity-Based Costing panels, which costing method would you recommend to WoolCo, and why?

Activity-based costing, because it recognizes differences in how each product uses factory overhead activities, yielding more accurate product costs.

Traditional costing, because it is a tried-and-true method used for the entire life of the company.

The company should use whichever method is the cheapest to implement.

Since both the methods give the same costs for each product, there is no advantage to either method.

Review the data you’ve compiled, and think about which method would provide more accurate product costs.

2. After reviewing your work on the Continue/Discontinue panel, should WoolCo continue (Alternative 1) or discontinue (Alternative 2) the rug yarn product line?
