Answer:

K425 = $20, 705

M67 = $1, 460

Explanation:

Overhead costs are costs on the income statement that exclude direct labor, direct materials and any other direct expenses. These costs are costs that are incurred indirectly, but are necessary for production. These include any advertising, insurance, rent, maintenance, repairs, telephone bills, supplies, utilities, taxes, etc.

Determine the total overhead cost that would be assigned to each of the products listed above in the activity-based costing system.
