Jay Rexford, Cincinnati Cycle’s president, has been reading about a new type of costing method called activity-based costing. Rexford is convinced that activity-based costing will cast a new light on future profits. As a result, Jack Canfield, the company’s director of cost management, has accumulated cost pool information for this year shown on the following chart. This information is based on a product mix of 5,000 units of JY-63 and 5,000 units of RX-67.

 
Cost Pool Information for 20x4

  Cost Pool  ActivityJY-63RX-67
  Direct labor  Direct-labor hours (per product line)10,000 5,000 
  Material handling  Number of parts (per unit)5 10 
  Inspection  Inspection hours (per product line)5,000 7,500 
  Machining  Machine hours (per product line)15,000 30,000 
  Assembly  Assembly hours (per product line)6,000 5,500 


 
In addition, the following information is projected for the next calendar year, 20x5.

 
 JY-63RX-67
  Sales (in units)5,100 4,900 
  Beginning inventory, finished goods (in units)800 600 
  Ending inventory, finished goods (in units)  700 700 


 
On January 1, 20x5, Rexford is planning to increase the prices of JY-63 to $710 and RX-67 to $910. Material costs are not expected to increase in 20x5, but direct labor will increase by 8 percent, and all manufacturing overhead costs will increase by 6 percent. Due to the nature of the manufacturing process, the company does not have any beginning or ending work-in-process inventories.
 
     Cincinnati Cycle Company uses a just-in-time inventory system and has materials delivered to the production facility directly from the vendors. The raw-material inventory both at the beginning and the end of the month is immaterial and can be ignored for the purposes of a budgeted income statement. The company uses the first-in, first-out (FIFO) inventory method.

 
Required:
2.
Using activity-based costing, calculate the total cost for 20x5 for the following activity cost pools: material handling, inspection, machining, and assembly. Then, calculate the pool rate per unit of the appropriate cost driver for each of the four activities. (Round your total cost answers to the nearest whole dollar. Round pool rates to 2 decimal places.)
