Explanation / Answer

Extrusion Costs= 83,600*200/950=17600 ( on the basis of Number batches made )
Handling Costs= 8,800*75/275=2400 ( on the basis of Number of orders filled )
Packaging Costs=40,500*750000/1350000=22500 ( on the basis of Number of units made )

total overhead cost=17600+2400+22500=$42500


How much overhead in total will be assigned to the Product A line?
$42,500.
$132,900.
