Total estimated machine hours      16,000      72,500
Total estimated direct labor costs      $155,000      $290,000

Required:
If Division A allocates overhead on the basis of machine hours, and Division B allocates overhead as a percentage of direct labor costs, what would the predetermined overhead rate be for each division?

$128,000 / 16,000 = $8 per machine hour

$261,000 / $290,000 = 90% of direct labor costs
