Using a departmental allocation system with direct labor hours as the cost driver in Department 1 and machine hours as the cost driver in Department 2, what was the allocation to Product X [round overhead rates to the nearest cent]?

Explanation / Answer

Answer:3

Pre determined overhead rate=Total Overhead cost/Total machine hours

=($64,00,000+$1900000)/(100000+120000)

=37.73 per machine Hour

Allocation to Product X=[1030 hours*$37.73+800*$37.73)

=$38861.9+30184

=$69045.9

Answer:4 Department 1:

Total overhead cost/Direct labor hours

=6400000/50000=$128 per DLH

Allocation to Product X=856 hours*$128=$109568

Department 2:

Total overhead cost/Machine hours

=1900000/120000

=$15.83 per MH

Allocation to Product X=800*$15.83

=12664

Total=12664+$109568

=$122232
