MOH Applied to Sturdy Vase Current Attempt in Progress

Sarah works for a company that makes and sells vases, and she just completed the preliminary gross margin analysis related to the

recently completed fiscal year. She followed past practice and allocated MOH costs using a plant$-$wide rate based on DL hours. The

company makes two varieties of vases: Sturdy and Delicate.

machine hours$),$ and packaging $($driven by packaging hours$).$ She gathered the following information to assist in her analysis. $($a$)$

Calculate the single plant$-$wide rate that Sarah must have calculated and then allocate MOH costs to the two products using that

rate. $($Round plant$-$wide rate to $2$ decimal places, e$.$g$.15\mathrm{.}25.)$
