Willow Company produces lawn mowers. One of its plants produces two versions of mowers: a basic model and a deluxe model. The deluxe model has a sturdier frame, a higher horsepower engine, a wider blade, and mulching capability. At the beginning of the year, the following data were prepared for this plant:

Additionally, the following overhead activity costs are reported:
Maintaining equipment | $114,000 |
Engineering support | 120,000 |

Setting up equipment | 96,000 |
Purchasing materials | 60,000 |
Receiving goods* | 40,000 |
Paying suppliers | 30,000 |
Providing space | 20,000 |
Total | $ ? |
* Receiving activity cost includes allocated share of forklift operators’ salaries.
Facility-level costs are allocated in proportion to machine hours (provides a measure of time the facility is used by each product). Receiving and materials handling use three inputs: two forklifts, gasoline to operate the forklift, and three operators. The three operators are paid a salary of $40,000 each. The operators spend 25% of their time on the receiving activity and 75% on moving goods (materials handling). Gasoline costs $3 per move. Depreciation amounts to $8,000 per forklift per year.
