Explanation / Answer

= 131100+355500+209000

= 695600

Total cases = Extra fine + Family style

= 36000+134000

= 170000

Cost assigned to Extra fine = 695600*(36000/170000)

= 147303.53

Cost assigned to Family style = 695600*(134000/170000)

= 548296.47

Cost assigned to Extra fine (Per unit) = 147303.53/36000

= 4.09

Cost assigned to Family style (Per unit) = 548296.47/134000

= 4.09

Extra fine = 8+4.09

= 12.09

Family style = 7+4.09

= 11.09

Extra fine = 16 – 12.09

Family style = 16 – 11.09
