The company has two revenue centers: Retail Services and Commercial Services. There are also three service centers: Maintenance, Office Support, and Facility Support. The maintenance center supplies support to all four other centers. The Maintenance area is allocated based on maintenance work orders (Office Support: 10 work orders, Facility Support: 20 work orders, Retail Services: 25 work orders, Commercial Services: 75 work orders). The Office Support is allocated based on hours (Facility Support: 40 hours of Office Support, Retail Services: 50 hours of Office Support, Commercial Services: 200 hours of Office Support). The Facility Support is allocated based on number of customers (Retail Services: 150 customers, Commerical Services: 75 customers). Overhead rates are calculated based on the number of invoices generated (Retail Services: 40,000 invoices, Commercial Services: 10,000 invoices).
