All three parts can be answered using a first-stage allocation of costs.

Working On Business
Engagements Development Other Total
Wages and salaries .... P372,000 P 62,000 P186,000 P620,000
Travel expenses ......... 70,000 56,000 14,000 140,000
Other expenses ......... 42,000 30,000 48,000 120,000
Total ......................... P484,000 P148,000 P248,000 P880,000

5.
a. The computation of the activity rates follow:
Total Cost Total Activity Activity Rates
Cleaning .......... P263,784 34,800 hours P7.58 per hour
Job support ...... P145,180 7,000 jobs P20.74 per job
Client support .. P4,774 220 clients P21.70 per client

b. The customer margin for the family is computed as follows:


Client charges ............. P2,000.00
Costs:
Cleaning................... P682.20
Job support............... 933.30
Client support........... 21.70 1,637.20
Customer margin ......... P 362.80

Computations for costs:


Cleaning: 90 hours × P7.58 per hour = P682.20
Job support: 45 jobs × P20.74 per job = P933.30
Client support: 1 client × P21.70 per client = P21.70

c. The margin if all costs are allocated on the basis of cleaning hours:

Predetermined overhead rate = P583,738 ÷ 34,800 hours = P16.77 per hour

Client charges .................. P2,000.00


Allocated costs* ............... 1,509.30
Customer margin .............. P 490.70

* 90 hours × P16.77 per hour = P1,509.30

6.
a. The first step is to compute activity rates:
Total Cost Total Activity Activity Rates
Cleaning ............... P185,752 21,700 hours P8.56 per hour
Job support ........... P171,532 6,100 jobs P28.12 per job
Client support ....... P15,124 760 clients P19.90 per client

The customer margin for the family is computed as follows:


Client charges ............. P1,170.00
Costs:
Cleaning................... P513.60
Job support............... 421.80
Client support........... 19.90 955.30
Customer margin ......... P 214.70

Computations for costs:


Cleaning: 60 hours × P8.56 per hour = P513.60
Job support: 15 jobs × P28.12 per job = P421.80
Client support: 1 client × P19.90 per client = P19.90
b. The margin if all costs are allocated on the basis of cleaning hours:

Predetermined overhead rate = P612,408 ÷ 21,700 hours = P28.22 per hour

Client charges ............. P1,170.00


Allocated costs* .......... 1,693.20
Customer margin ......... (P523.20)

* 60 hours × P28.22 per hour = P1,693.20

7.
a. The expected total direct labor hours during the period are computed as follows:

Product C: 400 units × 1.2 hours per unit ............ 480 hours
Product D: 3,000 units × 1.3 hours per unit ......... 3,900 hours
Total direct labor hours..................................... 4,380 hours

Using these hours as a base, the predetermined overhead using direct labor hours would
be:

Estimated overhead cost ÷ Estimated direct labor-hours =


P119,100 ÷ 4,380 DLHs = P27.19 per DLH

Using this overhead rate, the unit product costs are:

Product C Product D
Direct materials ...................... P 4.00 P22.80
Direct labor ............................ 12.00 13.00
Manufacturing overhead .......... 32.63 35.35
Total unit product cost ............ P48.63 P71.15

b. The activity rates for each activity cost pool are as follows:

Estimated
Overhead Expected Activity
Costs Activity Rate
Machine setups ..... P10,440 180 P58.00
Purchase orders .... P78,000 2,000 P39.00
General factory ...... P30,660 4,380 P7.00

The overhead cost charged to each product is:

Product C Product D
Activity Amount Activity Amount
Machine setups ........ 60 P 3,480 120 P 6,960
Purchase orders ....... 820 31,980 1,180 46,020
General factory ......... 480 3,360 3,900 27,300
Total overhead cost ... P38,820 P80,280
Overhead cost per unit:
Product C: P38,820 ÷ 400 units = P97.05 per unit
Product D: P80,280 ÷ 3,000 units = P26.76 per unit

Using activity based costing, the unit product cost of each product would be:

Product C Product D
Direct materials ........................... P 4.00 P22.80
Direct labor ................................. 12.00 13.00
Manufacturing overhead ............... 97.05 26.76
Total unit product cost ................. P113.05 P62.56

8.
The activity rates for each activity cost pool are as follows:

Overhead
Estimated Expected Activity
Activity Cost Pool Costs Activity Rate
Machine setups ........... P13,720 280 P49.00
Purchase orders .......... P74,730 1,590 P47.00
General factory ............ P15,000 3,000 P5.00

The overhead cost charged to each product is:

Product F Product G
Activity Amount Activity Amount
Machine setups ........... 140 P 6,860 140 P 6,860
Purchase orders .......... 630 29,610 960 45,120
General factory ............ 600 3,000 2,400 12,000
Total overhead cost ...... P39,470 P63,980

Overhead cost per unit:


Product F: P39,470 ÷ 600 units = P65.78 per unit
Product G: P63,980 ÷ 3,000 units = P21.33 per unit
