Chapter 8: Activity–Based Costing
Activity-based Costing (ABC) vs. Traditional Absorption Costing
Purposes: ABC is for internal decision making (e.g. drop or retain a segment),
while absorption costing is for external reporting (e.g. value inventory, CGS).
Product Cost: ABC assigns some manufacturing (excluding e.g. factory
manager’s office supplies) & some nonmanufacturing costs (e.g. shipping
costs, sales commissions) to products on a cause-and-effect basis, while
absorption costing assigns all manufacturing costs and none of the
nonmanufacturing costs to products.
Overhead cost pool: ABC uses many overhead cost pools, each with
unique cost driver, while absorption costing typically has only one plantwide cost pool and uses either DLH or MH as the single cost driver.
Basic Concepts of Activity-based Costing
Activity
An event that causes the
consumption of overhead cost.
Activity
Cost Pool
A “cost bucket” in which
overhead costs caused by a
particular activity measure are
accumulated.
Activity Measure
$
$
An allocation base (cost driver).
5 levels of Activity in ABC system
1. Unit-level activities: performed each time a unit is produced, so
costs are proportional to # of units produced. e.g., providing power.
2. Batch-level activities: performed each time a batch is handled,
so costs depend on the number of batches. e.g., setting up machine
for batch processing, or processing an online order.
3. Product-level activities: e.g., designing / advertising a product.
4. Customer-level activities: e.g., sales calls, general tech
support.
5. Organization-sustaining activities: e.g., providing a companywide computer network.

Manufacturing overhead is allocated to products using
a single plantwide overhead rate based on machine hours.
Step 1: define activity cost pools & activity measures
Classic Brass combined correlated activities within a level
and identified the following activity cost pools:
 Order Size - assigned all costs incurred as a
consequence of the number of units produced.
 Customer Orders - assigned all costs that are
incurred by taking and processing customer orders.
 Product Designs - assigned all costs that are incurred
by designing products.
 Customer Relations – assigned all costs associated
with maintaining relations with customers.
 Other – assigned all overhead costs that are not
associated with the other cost pools.
Step 1: define activity cost pools & activity measures
At Classic Brass, the ABC team, selected the following
activity measures for the identified activity cost pools:
Activity Cost Pool
Activity Measure
Order Size
Machine hours
Customer Orders
Number of customer orders
Product Design
Number of product designs
Customer Relations
Number of active customers
Other
Not applicable
Step 2: Assign Overhead Costs to Activity Cost Pools
At the beginning of the period, the ABC team obtains from each department
the estimated overhead costs (both manufacturing and nonmanufacturing
costs that are not directly traceable to each product) and their distribution
of resource consumption across activity cost pools.
Step 2: Assign Overhead Costs to Activity Cost Pools
Indirect factory wages
Percent consumed by customer orders
$500,000

$125,000
Step 2: Assign Overhead Costs to Activity Cost Pools
Step 3: Calculate Activity Rates
The estimated total activities for each activity cost pool are:
1,000 customer orders, 400 new designs, 20,000 machine
hours and 250 customer relations activities.

Step 4: Assigning Overhead to Products
Standard Stanchions
1. Requires no new design resources.
2. Received 600 customer orders.
3. Produced 30,000 units for these orders,
consuming a total of 17,500 machine-hours
Step 4: Assigning Overhead to Products
Custom Compass Housing
1. Requires new design resources.
2. 400 product designs prepared for 400 customer orders
3. 1,250 compass housings produced, requiring 2
machine-hours each for a total of 2,500 machine-hours.
