    B) $1.40 per machine hour

    Explanation:

    Total machine hours = 29,000 + 48,000 = 77,000

    Predetermined overhead allocation rate = Total estimated overhead costs / Total estimated quantity of the overhead allocation base

    = $108,000 / 77,000 machine hours

    = $1.40 per machine hour
