Answer:

$336,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for How much cost that would be allocated in the first-stage allocation to the Order Processing activity cost pool

Total Order Processing activity cost pool

Wages and salaries: 60% × $360,000

Wages and salaries= $216,000

Depreciation: 35% × $200,000

Depreciation=$70,000

Occupancy : 50% × $100,000

Occupancy=$50,000

TOTAL =$336,000

Therefore the amount of cost that would be allocated in the first-stage allocation to the Order Processing activity cost pool will be $336,000
