The overhead unit cost for the laser printers is:

= $40.05

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Overhead Costs Pool   Cost Driver                      Overhead    Budgeted

                                                                                      Cost      cost driver

Quality control          Number of inspections         $ 64,800           1,080

Machine operation   Machine hours                        132,000           1,100

Materials handling   Number of batches                       900               30

Miscellaneous         Direct labor hours                     48,000         4,000

Overhead Rates:

Quality control = $60 ($64,800/1,080)

Machine operation = $120 ($132,000/1,100)

Materials handling = $30 ($900/30)

Miscellaneous overhead costs = $12 ($48,000/4,000)

Quantity of order = 1,000 laser printers

Requirements of the order:   Overhead Rate              Total

Number of Inspections 175      $60 (175*$60)          $10,500

Machine Hours 180                 $120 (180*$120)           21,600

Number of Batches 5               $30 (5*$30)                     150

Direct Labor Hours 650            $12 (650*$12)             7,800

Total overhead allocated to 1,000 laser printers = $40,050

Unit overhead cost for the printers = $40.05 ($40,050/1,000)
