Assume that a company has recently switched to JIT manufacturing. Each manufacturing cell produces a single product or major subassembly. Cell workers have been trained to perform a variety of tasks. Additionally, many services have been decentralized. Costs are assigned to products using direct tracing, driver tracing, and allocation. For each cost listed, indicate the most likely product cost assignment method used before JIT and after JIT. Set up a table with three columns: Cost Item, Before JIT, and After JIT. You may assume that direct tracing is used whenever possible, followed by driver tracing, with allocation being the method of last resort. Inspection costs Power to heat, light, and cool plant Minor repairs on production equipment Salary of production supervisor (department/cell) Oil to lubricate machinery Salary of plant supervisor Costs to set up machinery Salaries of janitors Power to operate production equipment Taxes on plant and equipment Depreciation on production…

Mirabile Corporation uses activity-based costing to compute product margins. Overhead costs have already been allocated to the company's three activity cost pools--Processing, Supervising, and Other. The costs in those activity cost pools appear below: Processing Supervising Other Processing costs are assigned to products using machine-hours (MHs) and Supervising costs are assigned to products using the number of batches. The costs in the other activity cost pool are not assigned to products. Activity data appear below: Product MO Product M5 Total $ 3,800 $ 23,800 $ 10,400 MHs (Processing) 9,700 300 10,000 Sales (total) Direct materials (total) Direct labor (total) Batches (Supervising) 500 500 1,000 Finally, sales and direct cost data are combined with Processing and Supervising costs to determine product margins.
