She notices that $30,000 of the overhead originated from the equipment used. She decides to incorporate machine-hours into the overhead allocation base to determine the effect on product profitability. Almond Dream requires 2 machine-hours per case, Krispy Krackle requires 7 hours per case, and Creamy Crunch requires 6 hours per case.
