Allure Company manufactures and distributes two products, M and XY. Overhead costs
are currently allocated using the number of units produced as the allocation base. The
controller has recommended changing to an activity-based costing (ABC) system. She has

Markham Company makes two products: Basic Product and Deluxe Product. Annual
production and sales are 1,700 units of Basic Product and 1,100 units of Deluxe Product.
The company has traditionally used direct labor-hours as the basis for applying all
manufacturing overhead to products. Basic Product requires 0.3 direct labor hours per unit
and Deluxe Product requires 0.6 direct labor hours per unit. The total estimated overhead
for next period is $98,785.
The company is considering switching to an activity-based costing system for the purpose
of computing unit product costs for external reports. The new activity-based costing
system would have three overhead activity cost pools—Activity 1, Activity 2, and General
Factory—with estimated overhead costs and expected activity as follows:

Chang 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, Plain and Fancy, about which
it has provided the following data:

The company's estimated total manufacturing overhead for the year is $985,440 and the
company's estimated total direct labor-hours for the year is 24,000.
The company is considering using a variation of activity-based costing to determine its
unit product costs for external reports. Data for this proposed activity-based costing
system appear below:
