Cross Roads Manufacturing currently uses a traditional costing system. The company allocates overhead to its two products, Zips and Dees, using a predetermined manufacturing overhead rate based on direct labor hours. Here is data related to the company's two products:

Zips Dees
Direct materials per unit $140 $100
Direct labor per unit $55 $50
Direct labor hours per unit 2.0 1.5
Annual production 25,000 40,000
Information about the company's estimated manufacturing overhead for the year follows:

Activities Activity measures Estimated overhead cost
Supervision and maintenance Direct labor hours 2,200,000
Batch costs Number of batches $212,500
Engineering changes Number of engineering hours $180,000
Total estimated manufacturing overhead for the year $2,592,500
