Answer:

Part 1

Calculation of activity-based overhead rates

Cost of Each Activity = Cost of Activity ÷ Number of times that Activity is performed

Loading and unloading = $97,000 ÷ 91,500

                                       = $1.06 per piece

Travel = $467,000 ÷ 585,000

           = $0.80 per mile

Logistics = $62,000 ÷ 3,150

               = $19,68

Part 2

Overhead allocation to Job XZ3275

Loading and unloading (150 × $1.06) = $159.00

Travel ($0.80 × 200)                           = $160.00

Logistics ($19,68 × 0.75)                     =    $14.76

Total Overheads                                 = $333.76
