Kunkel Company makes two products and uses a conventional costing system. A single plantwide predetermined overhead rate is comp

uted based on direct labor-hours. Data for the two products for the upcoming year follow: Mercon WurconDirect materials cost per unit $ 8.00 $ 6.00Direct labor cost per unit $10.00 $11.00Direct labor-hours per unit 2.00 7.00Number of units produced 1,000 2,000These products are customized to some degree for specific customers.Required:1. The company's manufacturing overhead costs for the year are expected to be $640,000. Using the company's conventional costing system, compute the unit product costs for the two products. (Do not round intermediate calculation. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.)2. Management is considering an activity-based costing system in which half of the overhead would continue to be allocated on the basis of direct labor-hours and haif would be allocated on the basis of engineering design time. This time is expected to be distributed as follows during the upcoming year:Engineering design time (in hours) 1,000 1,000 2,000Compute the unit product cost for the two products using the proposed ABC system. (Do not round intermediate calculation. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.

Answer:

1) applying traditional costing

cost per unit for mercon = $98

cost per unit for wurcon = $297

2) applying ABC costing

cost per unit for mercon = $218

cost per unit for wurcon = $237

Explanation:

                                                     Mercon           Wurcon

Cost of direct materials per unit       $8.00             $6.00

Cost of direct labor per unit            $10.00             $11.00

Hours of direct labor per unit            2.00                7.00

applied overhead rate                         $80              $280      

Total units produced           1,000              2,000

applied overhead rate = total overhead / total direct labor hours = $640,000 / 16,000 = $40

cost per unit for mercon = $8 + $10 + $80 = $98

cost per unit for wurcon = $6 + $11 + $280 = $297

with ABC costing, the overhead rate is just 50%

Mercon           Wurcon

Cost of direct materials per unit       $8.00             $6.00

Cost of direct labor per unit            $10.00             $11.00

Hours of direct labor per unit            2.00                7.00

applied overhead rate                     $40              $140      

Total units produced           1,000              2,000

total costs of engineering          $160,000        $160,000

engineering cost by unit              $160                $80

engineering cost per unit = $320,000 / 2,000 = $160

cost per unit for mercon = $8 + $10 + $40 + $160 = $218

cost per unit for wurcon = $6 + $11 + $140 + $80 = $237

Nady [3242]

Answer: One potential action is to contact the credit card company to inquire if the payment can be made over the phone.

Explanation:

Other alternatives for settling a credit card bill without mailing include online payments. You'll need to create an online account, which typically requires your account number and some identification details. After registering, you can select the pay now feature to use your debit card or an online checking option for payment. It will process swiftly, though it may take a day to reflect in your account.

Most credit card companies offer an automated service allowing customers to make payments during the call. You'll require your card number, social security number, and debit card details for this transaction. While these payments are commonly free, it may vary based on the specific credit card provider.
