Saddle Inc. has two types of handbags: standard and custom. The controller has decided to use a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor costs. The president has heard of activity-based costing and wants to see how the results would differ if this system were used. Two activity cost pools were developed: machining and machine setup. Presented below is information related to the companys operations. Standard Custom Direct labor costs $45,000 $113,000 Machine hours 1,140 1,110 Setup hours 106 430 Total estimated overhead costs are $308,000. Overhead cost allocated to the machining activity cost pool is $195,000, and $113,000 is allocated to the machine setup activity cost pool. Incorrect answer. Your answer is incorrect. Try again.

Compute the overhead rate using the traditional (plantwide) approach. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 12.25.) Predetermined overhead rate:
