Puget World, Inc., manufactures two models of television sets, the N 800 XL model and the N 500 model. Data regarding the two products follow:

	Direct Labor- Hours per Unit	Annual Production	Total Direct Labor-Hours
Model N 800 XL	1.8	4,500 units	8,100
Model N 500	0.9	29,000 units	26,100

			34,200

Additional information about the company follows:

a.	Model N 800 XL requires $71 in direct materials per unit, and Model N 500 requires $56.
b.	The direct labor wage rate is $12 per hour.
c.	The company has always used direct labor-hours as the base for applying manufacturing overhead cost to products.
d.	Model N 800 XL is more complex to manufacture than Model N 500 and requires the use of special equipment. Consequently, the company is considering the use of activity-based costing to assign manufacturing overhead cost to products. Three activity cost pools have been identified as follows:

Activity Cost Pool	Activity Measure	Estimated Overhead Cost
Machine setups	Number of setups	$	358,000
Special processing	Machine-hours		175,000
General factory	Direct labor-hours		1,268,000

		$	1,801,000

	Expected Activity
Activity Measure	Model N 800 XL	Model N 500	Total
Number of setups	50	100	150
Machine-hours	12,000	0	12,000
Direct labor-hours	8,100	26,100	34,200
