1) Munar Corporation uses activity-based costing to compute product margins.
Overhead costs have already been allocated to the company's three activity cost
pools-Machining, Order Filling, and Other. The costs in those activity cost pools appear
below:
Machining costs are assigned to products using machine-hours (MHs) and Order Filling
costs are assigned to products using the number of orders. The costs in the Other
activity cost pool are not assigned to products. Activity data appear below:
Finally, sales and direct cost data are combined with Machining and Order Filling costs
to determine product margins.
The activity rate for the Order Filling activity cost pool under activity-based costing is
closest to:
A.$1.00 per order
B.$1.11 per order
C.$15.70 per order
D.$27.00 per order

c. Without preparing an income statement, determine the absorption costing net
operating income for the month. (Hint: Use the reconciliation method.)

12) Zemlya Corporation currently records $4,000 of depreciation each year on the
computer that it uses for its major data processing needs. The computer currently has
one more year of useful life left and it will have a salvage value of zero at the end of
that year. Jennifer, one of the accountants at Zemlya, suggested that the computer be
sold immediately for $3,000 and that the company hire a data processing firm to handle
the corporation's data processing needs. The computer currently requires $25,000 in
annual operating costs in addition to the depreciation. The data processing firm would
