Answer:

Cups = $45,000

Tablecloths = $1,12,500

Bottles = $1,42,500

Explanation:

Given that,

Factory manager’s salary = $210,000

Factory utility cost = 70,000

Factory supplies = 20,000

Overhead allocation rate :

= Budgeted Overhead ÷ Budgeted Base of allocation

= Total overhead costs ÷ Total machine hours

= $300,000 ÷ 2,000

= $150 per machine hour

Cups:

Allocated cost = Allocation rate × Weight of base

                        = $150 × 300

                        = $45,000

Tablecloths:

Allocated cost = Allocation rate × Weight of base

                        = $150 × 750

                        = $1,12,500

Bottles:

Allocated cost = Allocation rate × Weight of base

                        = $150 × 950

                        = $1,42,500
