Kalp Corporation has two production departments, Machining and Finishing. The company uses a job-order costing system and computes a predetermined overhead rate in each production department. The Machining Department’s predetermined overhead rate is based on machine-hours and the Finishing Department’s predetermined overhead rate is based on direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the current year, the company had made the following estimates:

	Machining	Finishing
Machine-hours	19,000	12,000
Direct labor-hours	2,000	8,000
Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost	$ 136,800	$ 69,600
Variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour	$ 1.80
