76. An organization's accountant is estimating next period's total overhead costs. She performed two regression analyses, one based on direct labour hours and the other based upon machine hours. The results were: Total overhead $150,000+ $4 x direct labour hours Adjusted R-square- 0.65 Total overhead $130,000 + $5 x machine hours Adjusted R-square 0.77 For the next period, the accountant anticipates using 28,000 direct labour hours and 26,000 machine hours. Based upon this information, what is the best estimate for...
