Worley Company buys surgical supplies from a variety of manufacturers and then resells and delivers these supplies to hundreds of hospitals. Worley sets its prices for all hospitals by marking up its cost of goods sold to those hospitals by 6%. For example, if a hospital buys supplies from Worley that had cost Worley $100 to buy from manufacturers, Worley would charge the hospital $106 to purchase these supplies.

 

     For years, Worley believed that the 6% markup covered its selling and administrative expenses and provided a reasonable profit. However, in the face of declining profits Worley decided to implement an activity-based costing system to help improve its understanding of customer profitability. The company broke its selling and administrative expenses into five activities as shown below:

 

  Activity Cost Pool (Activity Measure)Total CostTotal Activity
  Customer deliveries (Number of deliveries)$486,0006,000 deliveries
  Manual order processing (Number of manual orders) 684,0009,000 orders
  Electronic order processing (Number of electronic orders) 288,00012,000 orders
  Line item picking (Number of line items picked) 559,000430,000 line items
  Other organization-sustaining costs (None) 660,000  
   
  Total selling and administrative expenses$2,677,000  
   

 

  Worley gathered the data below for two of the many hospitals that it serves—University and Memorial (both hospitals purchased a total quantity of medical supplies that had cost Worley $40,000 to buy from its manufacturers):

 

 Activity
  Activity MeasureUniversityMemorial
  Number of deliveries1325
  Number of manual orders048
  Number of electronic orders190
  Number of line items picked160210

 

Required:
1.Compute the total revenue that Worley would receive from University and Memorial.
  

 

2.Compute the activity rate for each activity cost pool. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
  

 

3.Compute the total activity costs that would be assigned to University and Memorial. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.)
  

 

4.Compute Worley’s customer margin for University and Memorial. (Hint: Do not overlook the $40,000 cost of goods sold that Worley incurred serving each hospital.) (Loss amount should be indicated with a minus sign. Round your intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.)

SecuriCorp operates a fleet of armored cars that make scheduled pickups and deliveries in the Los Angeles area. The company is implementing an activity-based costing system that has four activity cost pools: Travel, Pickup and Delivery, Customer Service, and Other. The activity measures are miles for the Travel cost pool, number of pickups and deliveries for the Pickup and Delivery cost pool, and number of customers for the Customer Service cost pool. The Other cost pool has no activity measure because it is an organization-sustaining activity. The following costs will be assigned using the activity-based costing system:

 

  
  Driver and guard wages$1,180,000
  Vehicle operating expense 610,000
  Vehicle depreciation 490,000
  Customer representative salaries and expenses 520,000
  Office expenses 380,000
  Administrative expenses 680,000
 
  Total cost$3,860,000
 

 

The distribution of resource consumption across the activity cost pools is as follows:
