Answer:

1. Predetermined Overhead Rate = Manufacturing overhead costs  / Machine Hours

Predetermined Overhead Rate = $216,000/2,700 hours

Predetermined Overhead Rate = $80 per machine hour

2. Allocated overheads =Predetermined Overhead Rate * Machine hours used by Job 551

Allocated overheads = $80 * 90 machine hour

Allocated overheads = $7,200
