Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
It takes 80,900 direct labor hours to manufacture the Party Line and 93,500 direct labor hours to manufacture the Holiday Line. Overhead consists of $225,000 in the machine setup cost pool and $149,960 in the packaging cost pool.
We need to use the following formula:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= (225,000 + 149,960) / (80,900 + 93,500)= $2.15 per direct labor hour
