The Kaumajet Factory produces two products-table lamps and desk lamps. It has two separate departments-Finishing and
Production. The overhead budget for the Finishing Department is $550,000, using 500,000 direct labor hours. The overhead
budget for the Production Department is $400,000 using 80,000 direct labor hours.
If the budget estimates that a table lamp will require 2 hours of finishing and 1 hour of production, how much factory
overhead will the Kaumajet Factory allocate to each table lamp using the multiple production department factory overhead
rate method with an allocation base of direct labor hours?
