Steering Company estimated the following annual hours and costs:
| Expected annual direct labor hours | 40,000 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected annual direct labor cost | $1,400,000 | ||
| Expected machine hours | 40,000 | ||
| Expected material cost for the year | $1,792,000 | ||
| Expected manufacturing overhead | $2,240,000 | 
(a)
Calculate predetermined overhead allocation rates using each of the four possible allocation bases provided. (Round direct labor cost and direct material cost answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25 and all other answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 5,275.)

Direct labor hours:
Pedetermined overhead allocation rate = Estimated manufacturing overhead / Estimated direct labor hours
Pedetermined overhead allocation rate = $2,240,000 / 40,000 = $56 per DLH
Direct labor cost :
Pedetermined overhead allocation rate = Estimated manufacturing overhead / Estimated direct labor costs
Pedetermined overhead allocation rate = $2,240,000 / $1,400,000 = $1.6 per Direct labor cost
Machine hours:
Pedetermined overhead allocation rate = Estimated manufacturing overhead / Estimated machine hours
Pedetermined overhead allocation rate = $2,240,000 / 40,000 = $56 per MH
Material costs:
Pedetermined overhead allocation rate = Estimated manufacturing overhead / Estimated material costs
Pedetermined overhead allocation rate = $2,240,000 / $1,792,000 = $1.25 per Material costs
