Total allocated overhead = $9,532.42

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Activity Rate

Setting up batches = $59.06 per batch

Processing customer orders = $72.66 per customer order

Assembling products = $3.75 per assembly hour

Product K91B

Number of batches 86

Number of customer orders 36

Number of assembly hours 490

To allocate overhead, we need to use the following formula on each activity rate:

Allocated MOH = Estimated manufacturing overhead rate * Actual amount of allocation base

Setting up = 59.06*86 = 5,079.16

Processing = 72.66*36 = 2,615.76

Assembling = 3.75*490 = 1,837.5

Total allocated overhead = $9,532.42
