Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The total plant budget is $1,050,000 with 600,000 estimated direct labor hours.

Glove production will require 375,000 direct labor hours.

Mitten production will require 225,000 direct labor hours.

A) Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= (1,050,000/600,000)= $1.75 per direct labor hour

B) Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 1.75*2= $3.5

C) Allocated MOH= 1.75*1.5= $2.63

D) Total direct labor= 187,500*2= 375,000 hours

Allocated MOH= 1.75*375,000= $656,250

E) Total direct labor= 150,000*1.5= 225,000 hours

Allocated MOH= 1.75* 225,000= $393,750
