Explanation / Answer

Estimated Overhead Cost = $180,000

Machine Setups: Stellar : 400 setups

                            Lighters: 600 setups

The total machine setup cost pool should be assigned to sparklers is $180,000

Option (A) $180,000

Total Overhead Cost = [$1,200,000 + $2,700,000 + $900,000] = $4,800,000

Overhead Cost per hour = [$4,800,000 / (15,000 + 25,000)]

Overhead Cost per hour = $4,800,000 / 40,000

Overhead Cost per hour = $120

Overhead applied to Tini A = [$120 * 15,000]

Overhead applied to Tini A = $1,800,000

Hence, the correct option is (A) $1,800,000

Overhead applied to Tall B = [$120 * 25,000]

Overhead applied to Tall B = $3,000,000

Correct Option is (D) $3,000,000
