Walnut Systems produces two different products, Product A, which sells for $120 per unit, and Product B, which sells for $180 per unit, using three different activities: Design, which uses Engineering Hours as an activity driver; Machining, which uses machine hours as an activity driver; and Inspection, which uses number of batches as an activity driver. The cost of each activity and usage of the activity drivers are as follows:  CostUsage by Product AUsage by Product BDesign (Engineering hours)$150,000 200  300 Machining (Machine Hours)$500,000 1,000  3,000 Inspection (Batches)$30,000 45  15        Walnut manufactures 10,000 units of Product A and 7,500 units of Product B per month. Each unit of Product A uses $50 of direct materials and $20 of direct labor, while

each unit of Product B uses $75 of direct materials and $35 of direct labor. Required: a. Calculate the Design activity proportions for Products A and B. b. Calculate the Machining activity proportions for Products A and B. c. Calculate the Inspection activity proportions for Products A and B. d. Determine the indirect costs assigned to Product A. e. Determine the indirect costs assigned to Product B. f. Determine the manufacturing cost per unit for Product A. g. Determine the manufacturing cost per unit for Product B. h. Determine the gross profit per unit for Product A. i. Determine the gross profit per unit for Product B.

What will be an ideal response?


a. Product A: 40% = 200/(200 + 300); Product B: 60% = 300/(200 + 300)
b. Product A: 25% = 1,000/(1,000 + 3,000); Product B: 75% = 3,000/(1,000 + 3,000)
c. Product A: 75% = 45/(45 + 15); Product B: 25% = 15/(45 + 15)
d. $207,500 = (40% × $150,000) + (25% × $500,000) + (75% × $30,000)
e. $472,500 = (60% × $150,000) + (75% × $500,000) + (25% × $30,000)
f. $90.75 = $50 + $20 + ($207,500/10,000)
g. $173 = $75 + $35 + ($472,500/7,500)
h. $29.25 = $120 ? $90.75
i. $7 = $180 ? $173

Activity proportion = Activity driver usage/Total activity driver usage. Activity proportion × Cost = Activity cost. Sum of activity costs = Indirect costs assigned to each product. Manufacturing cost = Direct materials + Direct labor + Indirect costs. Gross profit = Selling price ? Manufacturing cost
