c. $6,500
d. $690
e. $1,020

Machine setup= $1,200

Machine repair= $750

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the activities cost rate for each activity:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Materials handling= 144,000/4,800= $30 per pound

Machine setup= 22,000/550= $40 per setup

Machine repair= 1,580/31,600= $0.05 per machine hour

Inspections= 16,000/320= $5 per inspection

Now, we can allocate costs to Job 971:

Machine setup= 40*30= $1,200

Machine repair= 0.05*15,000= $750
