Use the infоrmаtiоn in Exhibit 1 tо аnswer the following four questions. Exhibit 1: Agаtha Corp. Agatha Corp. manufactures office supplies that it specifically creates for recent college graduates. One of their most popular items in recent years is the 'Witches Road' annual planner that is accompanied by accessories such as stickers, highlighters and spells. Agatha currently uses a single plant-wide rate of $14 per Direct Labor hour (DLH) to allocate their Manufacturing Overhead (MOH) costs. Rio Vidal, the controller, would like to determine whether a switch to Activity-Based Costing (ABC) would prove to be a beneficial planning tool for Agatha Corp. moving forward. Rio has identified three key activities that would be used for ABC: Production, Supervisor Wages, and Quality Inspections. Sarah has compiled the following budgeted MOH cost data for the annual planner: Activity Budgeted Cost Budgeted Quantity of Cost Driver Budgeted Activity Rate Production $309,870 30,000 machine hours $10.33 Supervisor Wages 98,946 4,668 hours $21.20 Quality Inspection 106,440 10,240 inspection hours $10.39 Total $515,256 The actual usage of resources for manufacturing the 'Witches Road' annual planner includes $27,360 in DM costs; 37,000 DL hours; 28,500 machine hours; 4,500 supervisor hours; and 9,800 inspection hours. The ABC allocated based on the previous information is $491,627, calculated as follows: Activity Calculation ABC Cost Production $10.33 per machine hour × 28,500 machine hours $294,405.00 Supervisor Wages $21.20 per hour × 4,500 hours 95,400.00 Quality Inspection $10.39 per inspection hour × 9,800 inspection hours 101,822.00 Total $491,627.00
