VaultOnWheels
Corporation operates a fleet of armored cars that make scheduled
pickups and deliveries for its customers in the Phoenix 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 | $ | 1,060,000 |
Vehicle operating expense | 490,000 | |
Vehicle depreciation | 370,000 | |
Customer representative salaries and expenses | 400,000 | |
Office expenses | 260,000 | |
Administrative expenses | 560,000 | |
| | |
Total cost | $ | 3,140,000 |
| | |
|
The distribution of resource consumption across the activity cost pools is as follows: |
Travel | Pickup and Delivery | Customer Service | Other | Totals | ||||||
Driver and guard wages | 40 | % | 45 | % | 10 | % | 5 | % | 100 | % |
Vehicle operating expense | 75 | % | 5 | % | 0 | % | 20 | % | 100 | % |
Vehicle depreciation | 70 | % | 10 | % | 0 | % | 20 | % | 100 | % |
Customer representative salaries and expenses | 0 | % | 0 | % | 85 | % | 15 | % | 100 | % |
Office expenses | 0 | % | 25 | % | 35 | % | 40 | % | 100 | % |
Administrative expenses | 0 | % | 5 | % | 55 | % | 40 | % | 100 | % |
