    Explanation:

    The computation of the overhead rate based on a single cost driver is shown below:

    = Total Overheads : Total Compensation

    where,

    Total overhead = $1,260,000

    Total compensation = Compensation to partners + Compensation to staff accountants

    = $560,000 + $840,000
