Estimated

Activities and Activity Measures Overhead Cost Xtreme Pathfinder Total
Supporting direct labor (direct labor-hours) $ 556,000 51,200 60,000 111,200
Batch setups (setups) 770,000 430 340 770
Product sustaining (number of products) 400,000 1 1 2
Other 53,200 NA NA NA
Total manufacturing overhead cost $ 1,779,200

Compute the product margins for the Xtreme and the Pathfinder products under the activity-based costing system. (Negative product margins should be indicated with a minus sign. Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)

3.
Prepare a quantitative comparison of the traditional and activity-based cost assignments. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your "Percentage" answer to 1 decimal place. (i. e. .1234 should be entered as 12.3))
