Manufacturers follow four steps to implement a manufacturing overhead allocation system. The last step is to:

A. Select an allocation base and estimate the total amount that will be used during the year

B. Allocate some manufacturing overhead to each individual job

C. Estimate total manufacturing overhead costs for the coming year

D. Calculate a predetermined manufacturing overhead rate

Answer: Manufacturers follow four steps to implement a manufacturing overhead allocation system. The last step is to: " B. Allocate some manufacturing overhead to each individual job ".

Explanation: The steps to implement a manufacturing overhead allocation system are:

1) Obtain a detailed list of all general manufacturing costs.

2) Choose an allocation base (machine hours, direct labor hours) to divide the general factory costs by this allocation base and assign general costs to each production unit.

3) The total allocation base is divided by the units produced to know the amount of manufacturing overhead associated with each unit.

4) "B. Assign some general manufacturing expenses to each individual job." For example, product X requires 2 hours of work to produce it and product Y one hour, higher general manufacturing costs will be assigned to product X
