	Assembly	Finishing
Budgeted overhead	$330,000	$1,000,000
Actual overhead	110,000	520,000
Expected activity (direct labor hours)	150,000	25,000
Expected machine hours	25,000	125,000

During the year, several jobs were completed. Data pertaining to one such job, Job 330, follow:

Direct materials	$730,000
Direct labor cost:
Assembly (5,000 hours @ $12 per hr.)	$60,000
Finishing (400 hours @ $12 per hr.)	$4,800
Machine hours used:
Assembly	100

Units produced	10,000

Lindberg Company uses a plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor hours (DLH) to assign overhead to jobs.
