    Allocated MOH Totes = $13,209

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    The company allocates manufacturing overhead using a single plantwide rate with direct labor cost as the allocation base. The estimated overhead costs for the year are $ 25,000.

    Direct labor cost per unit:

    Totes = $ 50

    Satchels = $ 65

    Number of units:

    Totes = 510

    Satchels = 350

    Total = 860

    Total direct labor cost = 50*510 + 65*350 = $48,250

    Estimated manufacturing overhead rate = total estimated overhead costs for the period / total amount of allocation base

    Estimated manufacturing overhead rate = 25,000/48,250 = $0.518 per labor dollar

    Allocated MOH = Estimated manufacturing overhead rate * Actual amount of allocation base

    Allocated MOH Totes = 0.518 * (50*510) = $13,209
