C)
 11ea86ed_2bb1_1c68_8b27_1f26100c274a_TB3056_00 Predetermined overhead allocation rate = Total estimated overhead costs / Total estimated quantity of the overhead allocation base = $25,000 / $52,100 = 47.98% of direct labor cost
Manufacturing overhead cost allocated to Satchels = $22,940 × 47.98% = $11,007
