    Explanation:

    First compute Overhead Absorption Rate = Budgeted Overhead divided by Budgeted Activity Level

    In this question the activity level is Direct Labour Hours (DLH) which is the basis for allocating overhead.

    budgeted factory overhead for the year at $453,120, and budgeted direct labor hours for the year are 384,000.
