    Total overhead = $50,000

    Explanation:

    Activity based costing is a method of allocating production cost to various activities, from example to accounting, sales, operations and son on. A given standard amount is multiplied by the units of an activity.

    In this instance the overhead includes machine setup, factory maintenance, heating and lighting.

    Total overhead = machine setup + factory maintenance + heating and lighting

    Total overhead = 25,000 + 10,000 + 15,000

    Total overhead = $50,000

    Sales expense is a direct expense so is not included.
