Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Maintenance is the service department at CakeCo that incurred $12,000 of costs during the period. Overhead gets allocated based on floor space occupied by each of the operating departments.

<u>We don't have enough information to calculate the allocated overhead, but, I can leave the formulas and a small example to help with an answer</u>.

For example:

Total floor space= 10,000 square foot.

Baking department= 3,000 sq.

First, we need to calculate the estimated overhead rate:

To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

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

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 12,000/10,000= $1.2 per square foot.

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 1.2*3,000= $3,600
