Question
EcoFabrics has budgeted overhead costs of $1,039,500. It has allocated overhead on a plantwide basis to its two products (wool and cotton) using direct labor hours which are estimated to be 495,000 for the current year. The company has decided to experiment with activity-based costing and has created two activity cost pools and related activity cost drivers. These two cost pools are cutting (cost driver is machine hours) and design (cost driver is number of setups). Overhead allocated to the cutting cost pool is $396,000 and $643,500 is allocated to the design cost pool. Additional information related to these pools is as follows.

   
Wool
 
Cotton
 
Total
Machine hours   110,000   110,000   220,000
Number of setups   1,100   550   1,650
 
 
Calculate the overhead rate using activity based costing. (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 12.25.)
