rate positively ..

	Computation of overhead cost for department
	Total cost
	Planting	47,000
	Irrigation	19,000
	Product Support	19,046
	Harvesting	21,567
	Inspections	4,564
	Property Taxes	6,754
	TOTAL	117,931
	Total hour
	Trees	=0.2*8908	1,781.60
	Sod	=1,556,851*.009	14,011.66
	Total hour		15,793.26
	Overhead rate = 117931/15793.26			7.467
	therefore overhead = Overhead rate * number of hr
	Trees overhead = 7.467*1781.6			13303.52
	Sod overhead =7.467*14011.66			104627.48
