Answer:

$50.50 per machine-hour

Explanation:

The computation of the plant wide overhead rate is shown below:

Plant wide Overhear Rate = Estimated Manufacturing Overhead ÷ Expected Machine-hours

where,

Estimated Manufacturing Overhead = Estimated Indirect Labor + Estimated Factory Utilities

= $6,520,000 + $550,000

=  $7,070,000

And, the expected machine hours is 140,000

So, the plant wide overhead rate is

= $7,070,000 ÷ 140,000 machine hours

= $50.50 per machine-hour
