a.
Single predetermined overhead = $815,300 / 9,900 = $82.35 per direct labor hour
Gasoline engine = 5.2 * $82.35 = $428.22 per unit
Diesel engine = 5.2 * $82.35 = $428.22 per unit
b.
Multi production department factory overhead rate :
Fabrication department = $557,750 / 4,850 = $115
Assembly department = $257,550 / 5,050 = $51
Gasoline engine = 3.1*$115 + 2.1*$51 = 356.5+107.1 = $463.6 per unit
Diesel engine = 2.1*$115 + 3.1*$51 = 241.5+158.1 = $399.6 per unit
c. As per above results, Multi production department factory overhead method is recommended to management.
