Answer:

51.369%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Estimated overhead costs for the year = $24,750

Totes:

Direct materials cost per unit = $31

Direct labor cost per unit = $51

Number of units = 500

Satchels:

Direct materials cost per unit = $41

Direct labor cost per unit = $63

Number of units = 360

Estimated direct labor:

= (Direct labor cost per unit × No. of units) of Totes + (Direct labor cost per unit × No. of units) of Satchels

= ($51 × 500) + ($63 × 360)

= $25,500 + $22,680

= $48,180

Predetermine overhead allocation rate:


=(Estimated\ Overhead)/(Estimated\ direct\ Labor)* 100


=(24,750)/(48,180)* 100

= 51.369%
