    Perdon Corporation manufactures safes—large mobile safes, and large walk-in stationary bank safes. As part of its annual budgeting process, Perdon is analyzing the profitability of its two products. Part of this analysis involves estimating the amount of overhead to be allocated to each product line. The information shown below relates to overhead.

    Mobile Safes Walk-in Safes
    Units planned for production 210 48
    Material moves per product line 290 240
    Purchase orders per product line 460 360
    Direct labor hours per product line 810 1,710

    Actually I am confused about the traditional method, Prof did not talk about very much.
    However, I think that I have to do that total estimated manufacturing overhead $260,000 is divided by 2520 (810+1710) so 103.17.
