Answer:

d. $83,651.

Explanation:

In this question, we use the proportionate method which is shown below:

Salary in 2014 in dollars equals to

= Salary in 2004 × (Consumer price index in 2014 ÷ Consumer price index in 2004)

= $62,000 × (170 ÷ 126)

= $83,651

Simply we use divide the consumer price index in 2014 by  consumer price index in 2004 and then multiply it with the earned salary in 2004

Answer:

Step 1: Identify cost activities and their cost drivers

- Material Handling ⇒ Labor hours

- Automated processing ⇒ Machine hours

- Plastic parts insertion ⇒ No. of parts

- Inspection ⇒ Labor hours

- Packaging ⇒ Orders shipped

Step 2: Assign overhead costs to activities identified

- Material Handling ⇒ $55,000

- Automated processing ⇒ $40,000

- Plastic parts insertion ⇒ $6,000

- Inspection ⇒ $29,000

- Packaging ⇒ $31,000

Step 3: Calculate Total Estimated Cost Driver Activity(for large cage only)

- Material Handling ⇒ 2 per unit × 350 = 700 labor hours

- Automated processing ⇒ 4 per unit ×350 = 1400 machine hours

- Plastic parts insertion ⇒ 8 per unit × 350 = 2800 no. of parts

- Inspection ⇒ 2 per unit × 350 = 700 labor hours

- Packaging ⇒ 180 orders shipped

Step 4: Calculate overhead rates

- Material Handling ⇒ $55,000 ÷ 700 = $79 per labor hour

- Automated processing ⇒ $40,000 ÷ 1400 =$28 per machine hour

- Plastic parts insertion ⇒ $6,000÷ 2800 = $2 per part

- Inspection ⇒ $29,000÷ 700= $42 per labor hour

- Packaging ⇒ $31,000 ÷ 180=$172 per order shipped

Step 5: Apply overheads to product

Since the the amount of activity consumed by each product is no given , it is unable to calculate per unit cost of overhead.

If it were given, the total activity consumed by the product would be multiplied by their respective activity rates calculated above, and then those amounts would be added together to get total overhead consumed by Large cage. Lastly, that total overhead  will be divided by no. of units produced to get per unit overhead cost.
