Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,634,000 / 86,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $19 per direct labor hour

Now, we can allocate overhead to each unitary product:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Xactive= 19*1.4= $26.6

Pathbreaker= 19*1= $19

Finally, the unitary cost of each product:

Xactive= 63.8 + 17.2 + 26.6= $107.6

Pathbreaker= 50 + 12 + 19= $81
