Casual Cuts Inc. has total estimated factory overhead for the year of $225,000, divided into four activities: cutting, $90,000; sewing, $22,500; setup, $80,000; and inspection, $32,500. Casual Cuts manufactures two types of men’s pants: jeans and khakis. The activity-base usage quantities for each product by each activity are as follows:

  Cutting Sewing Setup Inspection
Jeans   500 dlh 1,000 dlh   250 setups 100 inspections
Khakis 1,000   500   750 400
1,500 dlh 1,500 dlh 1,000 setups 500 inspections


Each product is budgeted for 10,000 units of production for the year.  Determine (a) the activity rates for each activity and (b) the factory overhead cost per unit for each product, using activity-based costing.

Answer:
a. Cutting: $90,000 ÷ 1,500 direct labor hours = $60 per dlh 
Sewing: $22,500 ÷ 1,500 direct labor hours = $15 per dlh 
Setup: $80,000 ÷ 1,000 setups = $80 per setup 
Inspection: $32,500 ÷ 500 inspections = $65 per inspection 

b. Jeans Khakis
