Barney plc manufactures deluxe cat baskets in batches of 300. During April, Batch no. 567 took 20 hours to machine. Sixty cat baskets failed to pass an inspection, but of these, 40 were thought to be rectifiable. The remaining 20 were scrapped, and the scrap value was credited to the cost of the batch as a whole. Rectification work took nine hours. Costs were as follows:

Batch no. 567 £
Raw materials per cat basket 1.60 Scrap value per cat basket 0.86 Machinists’ hourly rate 4.20 Machine-hour overhead 3.60 Setting up of machine – normal machining 21.00 Setting up of machine – rectification 18.00 Calculate:
