Adelberg Company has two products: A and B. The annual production and sales of Product A is 500 units and of Product B is 1,000 units. The company has traditionally used direct labor-hours as the basis for applying all manufacturing overhead to products. Product A requires 0.4 direct labor-hours per unit and Product B requires 0.2 direct labor-hours per unit. The total estimated overhead for next period is $68,756.The company is considering switching to an activity-based costing system for the purpose of computing unit product costs for external reports.
