    Explanation:

    Activity Estimated Estimated Use of

    Cost Pools Overhead Cost Drivers per Activity

    Ordering and receiving $89,886 14,200 orders

    Food processing 474,925 60,500 machine hours

    Packaging 1,574,540 421,000 labor hours

    For 2020, the company had 11,400 orders and used 50,300 machine hours, and labor hours totaled 506,000

    Overhead Rates

    Ordering and receiving $89,886/14,200 order = $ 6.33 per order

    Food processing $ 474,925 / 60,500 machine hour = $7.85 per machine hour

    Packaging $ 1,574,540 / 421,000 labor hour = $ 3.73 per labor hour

    Total overhead applied $ 2354055

    Ordering and receiving = 11,400 * $ 6.33=$ 71820

    Food processing = 50,300 * $7.85 = $ 394855

    Packaging = 506,000 * 3.73 = $ 1887830
