Direct labor hours . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25,000
Required:
1. Determine the overhead rate for each cost pool, using the most appropriate allocation base for each pool. (Use each allocation base only once.)
2. Job 007 required $15,000 for direct materials, $20,000 for direct labor, 800 direct labor hours, 1,200 machine hours, six setups, and four design changes. Determine the cost of Job 007.
