    Answer and Explanation:

    a. The computation of operating income using the traditional costing system is shown below:-

    Product Sales Revenue Traditional Operating income

    540X $198,200 $54,440 $143,760

    137Y $158,700 $49,090 $109,610

    249S $83,190 $11,290 $71,900

    Therefore for reaching the operating income we simply deduct the traditional from sales revenue of every product.

    b. The computation of operating income using the activity-based costing system is shown below:-

    Products Sales Revenue ABC Operating income

    540X $198,200 $45,520 $152,680

    137Y $158,700 $39,290 $119,410

    249S $83,190 $30,010 $53,180

    So, for reaching the operating income we simply deduct the ABC from sales revenue of every product.

    c. The computation of percentage difference in operating income for each of the product lines is shown below:-

    Products Operating Income Operating Income Percentage

    (ABC) traditional cost difference

    540X $152,680 $143,760 6.20%

    137Y $119,410 $109,610 8.94%

    249S $53,180 $71,900 - 26.04%

    Now, to reach the percentage difference we simply deduct the operating income traditional cost from operating income and after the result we divide by operating income traditional cost.
