Problem - Jonson and Associates Manufacturing Corporation has a traditional costing system in which it applies manufacturing overhead to its products using a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours (DLHs). The company has two products, B21P and O11L, about which it has provided the following data:
|
B21P

|
The Company's estimated total manufacturing overhead for the year is $2,870,100 and the company's estimated total direct labor-hours for the year is 54,000.
The company is considering using a variation of ABC to determine its unit product costs for external reports. Data for this proposed ABC system appear below:
