Prime costs    $160,000        $1,500,000               $1,660,000

Direct labor hours 20,000       160,000                     180,000

Number of setups 60                   40                                 100

Number of moves      180             120                              300

First we find the rate by dividing the overhead costs with the corresponding cost driver as follows.

Overhead costs:                               Rate

Setting up equipment $240,000 = Setting up equipment / Number of setups=$240,000/100=2400

Moving materials 120,000   =   Moving materials/Number of moves

                                               120,000/300=400

Machine 200,000         =   Machining/Machine hours    

                                        =  200,000/ 90,000=2.222

Inspecting   160,000  =  Inspection/Inspection hours

                                        = 160,000/18000= 8.89

Now we find the overhead applied to the scented cards by multiplying the rate to the  corresponding overhead activity of the scented cards.

Activity                        Rate                Scented Cards

Setups:                        2400                   2400*60=$ 144,000

Moving materials:       400                    400*180= $72000

Machining:                    2.22                  2.22*10,000=$22,200

Inspection:                   8.89                  8.89*2000= $17,777.78

Steve Reese is a well-known interior designer in Fort Worth, Texas. He wants to start his own business and convinces Rob O’Donnell, a local merchant, to contribute the capital to form a partnership. On January 1, 2016, O’Donnell invests a building worth $130,000 and equipment valued at $140,000 as well as $60,000 in cash. Although Reese makes no tangible contribution to the partnership, he will operate the business and be an equal partner in the beginning capital balances.

To entice O'Donnell to join this partnership, Reese draws up the following profit and loss agreement:

- O'Donnell will be credited annually with interest equal to 10 percent of the beginning capital balance for the year
- O'Donnell will also have added to his capital account 15 percent of partnership income each year (without regard for the preceding interest figure) or $7,000, whichever is larger. All remaining income is credited to Reese.
- Neither partner is allowed to withdraw funds from the partnership during 2013. Thereafter, each can draw $5,000 annually or 20 percent of the beginning capital balance for the year, whichever is larger.
The partnership reported a net loss of $8,000 during the first year of its operation. On January 1, 2014, Terri Dunn becomes a third partner in this business by contributing $10,000 cash to the partnership. Dunn receives a 20 percent share of the business's capital. The profit and loss agreement is altered as follows:
- O'Donnell is still entitled to (1) interest on his beginning capital balance as well as (2) the share of partnership income just specified.
- Any remaining profit or loss will be split on a 5:5 basis between Reese and Dunn, respectively.

Partnership income for 2014 is reported as $64,000. Each partner withdraws the full amount that is allowed. On January 1, 2015, Dunn becomes ill and sells her interest in the partnership (with the consent of the other two partners) to Judy Postner. Postner pays $75,000 directly to Dunn. Net income for 2015 is $64,000 with the partners again taking their full drawing allowance On January 1, 2016, Postner withdraws from the business for personal reasons. The articles of partnership state that any partner may leave the partnership at any time and is entitled to receive cash in an amount equal to the recorded capital balance at that time plus 10 percent
