Answer:
Overhead assigned to Tic= $10,240
Explanation:
<em>Activity-based costing is a form of absorption costing where overheads are charged to product using cost drivers. </em>
<em>Under this method, overheads are first analyzed and categorized by the activities responsible for them and then charged to product based on the amount of benefits enjoyed using cost drivers.
</em>
Activity rate per driver is calculated as:
Activity overhead for the period / Total cost drivers for the period
Set -up activity overhead = $32,000
Total expected cost drivers for activity set up = sum of the set ups for the three products
Total set ups= 160 +150 + 190 = 500 set ups
Overhead rate per set up
= $32,000/500 set ups
= $64 per set up
Overhead assigned to Tic = Overhead rate per set up × No of setups for TIC
= $64 per setup
×160=$10,240
Overhead assigned to Tic= $10,240
