Answer:
Allocated MOH= $768
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (555,000/74,000) + 2.1
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $9.6 per machine hour
Now, we can allocate overhead to Job A496:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 9.6*80
Allocated MOH= $768
