Ko Inc. has two departments and uses a plant-wide predetermined overhead rate (POHR) using direct labor cost (DLC) as the allocation base to apply manufacturing overhead to the company's jobs. The owner of the company considers switching to departmental predetermined overhead rates that are based on direct labor hours (DLHs) in Dept. A and machine-hours (MHs) in Dept. B. Note that actual direct labor cost per hour is $12. At the beginning of the year, the company made the following estimates: Estimates: Dept. A Dept. B
Direct labor costs (DLC) $26,000 $13,700
Direct labor hours (DLHs) 2,000 1,200
Machine-hours (MHS) 1,800 3,200
