Cain Components manufactures and distributes various plumbing products used in homes and other buildings. Over time, the production staff has noticed that products they considered easy to make were difficult to sell at margins considered reasonable, while products that seemed to take a lot of staff time were selling well despite recent price increases. A summer intern has suggested that the cost system might be providing misleading information.

The controller decided that a good summer project for the intern would be to develop, in one self-contained area of the plant, an alternative cost system with which to compare the current system. The intern identified the following cost pools and, after discussion with some plant personnel, appropriate cost drivers for each pool. There were:

Cost Pools Costs Activity Drivers
Receiving $ 985,920 Direct material cost
Manufacturing 6,840,000 Machine-hours
Machine setup 1,126,680 Number of setups
Shipping $ 1,085,280 Units shipped

In this particular area, Cain produces two of its many products: Standard and Deluxe. The following are data for production for the latest full year of operations:

Products
Standard Deluxe
Total direct material costs $ 470,000 $ 154,000
Total direct labor costs $ 880,000 $ 480,000
Total machine-hours 160,000 140,000
Total number of setups 98 148
Total pounds of material 41,000 32,000
Total direct labor-hours 17,500 9,500
Number of units produced and shipped 20,800 5,800

The current cost accounting system charges overhead to products based on machine-hours. What unit product costs will be reported for the two products if the current cost system continues to be used?(Do not round intermediate calculations. Round costs to the nearest dollar.)
