Explanation / Answer

Single plant wide overhead rate :

Budgeted processing hour = (4000*.23+4500*.12+2500*.40)= 2460 Hour

Budgeted overhead = 30986+77464+7746+33864 = 150060

Single overhead rate = 150060/2460 = 61 per processing hour

b) Allocation :

Total factory overhead Per case factory overhead Tortilla chips 4000*.23*61 = 56120 56120/4000 = 14.03 Patato chips 4500*.12*61 = 32940 32940/4500 = 7.32 Pretzets 2500*.40*61 = 61000 61000/2500 = 24.40 Total 150060
