Explanation / Answer

1. Budgeted Rate of cost driver # of inspections for Quality control overhead is 78000/1200= $65 per inspection.

So the Quality control OH for the Cleat order having 375 no inspections is 375*65= $24,375

2. Budgeted machine hour rate is =188000/800=$235 per machine hour

So the applied machine hour OH for Cleat order having 220 machine hrs =220*235=$51,700
