Exercise 17-18 Step-Down Method of Service Department Cost Allocation; Bank (LO 17-1)

Tuscaloosa National Bank has two service departments, the Human Resources (HR) Department and the Computing Department. The bank has two other departments that directly service customers, the Deposit Department and the Loan Department. The usage of the two service departments output for the year is as follows:

User of Service Provider of Service
HR Computing
HR 20 %
Computing 10 %
Deposit 70 % 50 %
Loan 20 % 30 %

The budgeted costs in the two service departments for the year are as follows:

HR $ 465,000
Computing 697,500
