Order Up, Inc., provides order fulfillment services for dot.com merchants. The company maintains warehouses that stock items carried by its dot.com clients. When a client receives an order from a customer, the order is forwarded to Order Up, which pulls the item from storage, packs it, and ships it to the customer. The company uses a predetermined variable overhead rate based on direct labor-hours.
In the most recent month, 110,000 items were shipped to customers using 5,400 direct labor-hours. The company incurred a total of $18,630 in variable overhead costs.
According to the company’s standards, 0.05 direct labor-hours are required to fulfill an order for one item and the variable overhead rate is $3.50 per direct labor-hour.

Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Omit the "$" sign in your response.)
