Hayden, Inc. produces two different products, Product A and Product B. Hayden uses a traditional volume-based costing system in which direct labor hours are the allocation base. Hayden is considering switching to an ABC system by splitting its manufacturing overhead cost across three activities: Engineering, Manufacturing, and Inspection. The cost of each activity and usage of the activity drivers are as follows:
| |
Cost |
Usage by Product A |
Usage by Product B |
| Engineering (Machine Hours) |
$6,00,000 |
2,000 |
8,000 |
| Manufacturing (Direct Labor hours) |
$8,00,000 |
4,00,000 |
4,00,000 |
| Inspection (Batches) |
$2,00,000 |
4,000 |
1,000 |
| Total overhead |
$16,00,000 |
