Merati Corporation has two manufacturing departments--Forming and Assembly. The company used the following data at the beginning of the year to calculate predetermined overhead rates:

Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead cost$ 28,000$ 10,500$ 38,500
Estimated variable manufacturing overhead cost per MH$ 1.80$ 2.60

During the most recent month, the company started and completed two jobs--Job B and Job L. There were no beginning inventories. Data concerning those two jobs follow:

Job BJob L
Forming machine-hours3,4001,600
Assembly machine-hours2,0003,000
