	Support Departments		Producing Departments
	General Factory	Receiving	Assembly	Finishing
Direct overhead	$400,000	$150,000	$45,000	$75,000

Number of receiving orders	300		1,680	1,020
Direct labor hours			25,000	40,000

The support departments are ranked in order of highest cost to lowest cost.

Allocation ratios:

	General Factory	Receiving	Assembly	Finishing
Square footage
Number of receiving orders

Allocations:

	General Factory	Receiving	Assembly	Finishing
