Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Overhead is allocated to each job based on the number of direct labor hours spent on that job.

At the beginning of the current year:

The estimated overhead= $66,750.

Estimated direct labor hours= 4,450

In November, Leisure started and completed the following two jobs:

Job 101

Direct materials used= $16,000

Direct labor hours used=195

Job 102

Direct materials used= $ 10,500

Direct labor hours used= 72

Leisure paid a $30 per hour wage rate.

A) predetermined overhead rate= total estimated manufacturing overhead/ total amount of allocation base

predetermined overhead rate= 66,750/4450= $15 hour

B) Job 101:

Manufacturing overhead allocated= direct labor hours*predetermined overhead rate

Manufacturing overhead allocated= 195*15= $2925

Job 102:

Manufacturing overhead allocated= 72*15= $1080

C) Job 101:

Total cost= direct materials + direct labor + manufacturing overhead

Total cost= 16000 + 195*30 + 2925= $24,775

Job 102:

Total cost= 10500 + 72*30 + 1080= $13740
