Explanation:

Total Overhead Costs = Setting up Machines + Machining + Inspecting

Total Overhead Costs = $ 1600,000 + $ 3600,000 + $1,200,000

Total Overhead Costs = $ 64,00,000

Direct labor hours of Case 165 = 25,000

Total Direct labor Hours = 15,000 + 25,000= 40,000

Traditional Costing Overhead for Case 165= Total Overhead Costs/ Total Direct Labor Hours )* LAbor Hours for Case 165

Traditional Costing Overhead for Case 165= ($ 64,00,000/40,000) 25000
