- Assuming the company wants to convert to an activity-based system, calculate the cost per unit of cost driver for each activity in the first chart above.
- Use the cost per unit of cost driver to compute the indirect cost applied to each product line (large containers and small containers).In addition, calculate the indirect cost per unit for large and small containers.
- Compare the indirect activity-based cost per unit to the indirect cost per unit from the current (traditional) system.How have unit costs changed?Explain why the costs changed as they did.
- Should Razorback convert to activity-based costing?Provide an appropriate justification for your decision.
