Answer:
Cutting = $62,020
Pruning = $16,280
Step-by-step explanation:
The direct method does not consider the impact of reciprocal servicing arrangement when allocating the overhead of service centers and only allocates overhead to the production cost centers only.
Allocation of Overhead
Janitorial overhead
Cutting = 6/(6+54)× $5,000 = $500
Pruning =54/(6+54) × $5,000= $4,500
Maintenance overhead
Cutting = 9/(9+1)× $7,800 = $7020
Pruning =1/(9+1) × $7,800= $780
Total cost of production department
Cutting = 54,500 + 500 + 7020= 62,020
Pruning department = 11,000 + 4,500 + 780 = 16,280
Cutting = $62,020
Pruning = $16,280
