Heitger Company is a job-order costing firm that uses activity-based costing to apply overhead to jobs. Heitger identified three overhead activities and related drivers. Budgeted information for the year is as follows:

Activity	Cost		Driver	Amount of Driver
Materials handling	$48,200		Number of moves	2,000
Engineering	157,700		Number of change orders	9,500
Other overhead	256,500		Direct labor hours	45,000

Heitger worked on four jobs in July. Data are as follows:

	Job 13-43		Job 13-44		Job 13-45		Job 13-46
Beginning balance	$24,200		$17,200		$3,200		$0
Direct materials	$6,600		$8,600		$11,200		$11,300
Direct labor cost	$820		$1,010		$1,700		$110

	Job 13-43		Job 13-44		Job 13-45		Job 13-46
Number of moves	40		51		32		7
Number of change orders	34		40		22		24
Direct labor hours	820		1,010		1,700		110

By July 31, Jobs 13-43 and 13-44 were completed and sold. Jobs 13-45 and 13-46 were still in process.

Required:

1. Calculate the activity rates for each of the three overhead activities. Round all activity rates to the nearest cent.

Materials handling rate	$ per move
Engineering rate	$ per change order
Other overhead rate	$ per direct labor hour

2. Prepare job-order cost sheets for each job showing all costs through July 31.

When required, round your answers to the nearest dollar. If an amount is zero, enter "0".
