Betterton Corporation uses an activity based costing system to assign overhead costs to products. In the first stage, two overhead costs—equipment depreciation and supervisory expense-are allocated to three activity cost pools—Machining, Order Filling, and Other—based on resource consumption. Data to perform these allocations appear below:
Overhead costs:
Equipment depreciation $ 49,000
Supervisory expense $ 3,000
Distribution of Resource Consumption Across Activity Cost Pools:
Activity Cost Pools
Machining Order Filling Other
Equipment depreciation 0.50 0.30 0.20
Supervisory expense 0.10 0.40 0.50
In the second stage, Machining costs are assigned to products using machine-hours (MHs) and Order Filling costs are assigned to products using the number of orders. The costs in the Other activity cost pool are not assigned to products. Activity data for the company's two products follow:
Activity: Activity:
MHs (Machining) Orders (Order Filling)
Product A8 3,000 500
Product K2 17,000 1,500
Total 20,000 2,000
What is the overhead cost assigned to Product A8 under activity-based costing?
