6. Refer to Figure 4-10. What is the unit product cost for rug cleaners using activity based costing?

a. $8.00

b. $ 7.26

c. $ 4.00

d. $ 2.95

Explanation / Answer

Solution 6:

Total cost of rug cleaner = Prime cost + Allocated overhead = $200,000 + $208333.33 = $408,333.33

Nos of units produced = 100000

Unit product cost = $408,333.33 / 100000 = $4.08
