I found the discussion of self constructed assets to be interesting. These would be assets that the company itself builds instead of buys. The book talks about the difficulties in establishing the cost of the asset. How much of the company's overhead should be allocated to the project? How should interest incurred during construction be handled? There are a few options/opinions about how to handle overhead, which do you find to be best?

Colt Company reports pretax financial “income” of $143,000 in 2016. In addition to pretax income from continuing operations (of which revenues are $295,000), the following items are included in this pretax “income:” Problems Colt's taxable income totals $93,000 in 2016. The difference between the pretax financial income and the taxable income is due to the excess of tax depreciation over financial depreciation on assets used in continuing operations.

It is subject to tax rates of 15% on the first $50,000 of income and 30% on income in excess of $50,000.

income tax expense to the various components of pretax
income.

company has two overhead departments whose costs are listed on the following page:
Manufacturing overhead .................................. $500,000
Selling and administrative overhead ................ 300,000

Activity Cost Pool Activity Measure
Assembling units ..................... Number of units
Processing orders .................... Number of orders

the product.

overhead to the activity cost pools based on employee interviews, the results of which are reported below:

Munoz, Inc., produces a special line of plastic toy racing cars. Munoz, Inc., produces the cars in batches. To manufacture a batch of the cars, Munoz, Inc., must set up the machines and molds. Setup costs are batch-level costs because they are associated with batches rather than individual units of products. A separate Setup Department is responsible for setting up machines and molds for different styles of car.
