Gino’s Restaurant is a popular restaurant of Boston, Massachusetts. The owner of the restaurant has been trying to better understand costs at the restaurant and has hired a student intern to conduct an activity-based costing study. The intern, in consultation with the owner, identified the following major activities:

Activity Cost Pool                                     Activity Measure Serving a party of diners                Number of parties served Serving a diner                               Number of diners served Serving drinks                                Number of drinks ordered

A group of diners who ask to sit at the same table is counted as a party. Some costs, such as the costs of cleaning linen, are the same whether one person is at a table or the table is full. Other costs, such as washing dishes, depend on the number of diners served.

Data concerning these activities are shown below.

 Serving a Party Serving a Dinner Serving Drinks Total
Total cost $ 31,000 $ 214,000 $ 67,000 $ 312,000
Total activity 6,000 parties 15,000 diners 10,000 drinks 

Prior to the activity-based costing study, the owner knew very little about the costs of the restaurant. She knew that the total cost for the month was $312,000 and that 15,000 diners had been served. Therefore, the average cost per diner was $20.80 ($312,000 ÷ 15,000 diners = $20.80 per diner).

Required:
1.   Compute the activity rates for each of the three activities.(Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Serving Drinks                                $                 per drink

2.  According to the activity-based costing system, what is the total cost of serving each of the following parties of diners? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.)

a. A party of four diners who order three drinks in total.
b. A party of two diners who do not order any drinks.
c. A lone diner who orders two drinks.

Party of one diner who orders two drinks                                      $

3.  Convert the total costs you computed in Requirement 2 above to costs per diner. In other words, what is the average cost per diner for serving each of the following parties? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.)

a. A party of four diners who order three drinks in total.
b. A party of two diners who do not order any drinks.
c. A lone diner who orders two drinks.

Party of one diner who orders two drinks                                       $                 per diner

Conversion costs $2,800
Percent complete with respect to materials 60%
Percent complete with respect to conversion 35%
Units started into production during the month 6,900
Units transferred to the next department during the month 6,400
Materials costs added during the month $136,300
Conversion costs added during the month $243,400
Ending work in process inventory: 
Units in ending work in process inventory 700
Percent complete with respect to materials 55%
Percent complete with respect to conversion 50%

Note: Your answers may differ from those offered below due to rounding error. In all cases, select the answer that is the closest to the answer you computed. To reduce rounding error, carry out all computations to at least two decimal places.

The cost per equivalent unit for materials for the month in the first processing department is closest to:

$19.55

$20.12

$20.46

$19.05

In January, one of the processing departments at Seidl Corporation had ending work in process inventory of
$43,000. During the month, $133,000 of costs were added to production and the cost of units transferred out from the department was $104,000.

In the department’s cost reconciliation report for January, the cost of beginning work in process inventory for the department would be:

Review the Parable of the Sadhu in this week’s readings.

What did you learn from this parable that might help you engage in ethical conduct in the workplace? 

 Identify any ideas or images from then parable that give you clues about how employees are to behave ethically in the workplace.  For example, who do we step over on our way to the top? 

How do we treat older workers?  

You should identify at least two other clues or messages from that parable.
