Question
Macnamara Corporation has two manufacturing departments--Casting and Finishing. The company used the following data at the beginning of the year to calculate predetermined overhead rates:

 


  Casting Finishing Total
Estimated total machine-hours (MHs)   1,000   4,000   5,000
Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 4,800 $ 8,800 $ 13,600
Estimated variable manufacturing overhead cost per MH $ 1.80 $ 2.90    
 

During the most recent month, the company started and completed two jobs--Job F and Job M. There were no beginning inventories. Data concerning those two jobs follow:

 


  Job F Job M
Direct materials $ 11,500 $ 9,000
Direct labor cost $ 18,400 $ 7,400
Casting machine-hours   700   300
Finishing machine-hours   1,600   2,400
Assume that the company uses departmental predetermined overhead rates with machine-hours as the allocation base in both production departments. The manufacturing overhead applied to Job F is closest to:
   
$4,620
   
$12,420
   
$12,780
   
$8,160
