Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Western Company allocates $10.00 overhead to each unit produced. The company uses a plantwide overhead rate with machine hours as the allocation base.

Estimated: Department 1 Department 2

Manufacturing overhead costs $250,000 $150,000

Machine hours 15,000 MH ?

We will sum the total overhead and divide it by the overhead rate. Doing this we will determine the total number of machine-hours.

Total machine-hours= 400,000/10= 40,000 hours

Department 2= total machine hours - department 1 machine hours

D2= 40,000 - 15,000= 25,000 machine hours
