a. Upriver currently applies overhead on the basis of machine hours. What is the predetermined overhead rate for the month? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) b. Upriver is thinking of adopting an ABC system. They have tentatively chosen the following cost drivers: machine hours for machine depreciation, production runs for setup labor, and direct material dollars for material handling. Compute the cost driver rates for the proposed system at Upriver. (Round "Machine depreciation" answer to 2 decimal places.)

overhead rate		per machine hour
machine depreciation		per machine hour
setup labor		per production run
Material handiling		% direct material cost
