Predetermined overhead allocation rate = Total estimated overhead costs / Total estimated quantity of the overhead allocation base
Predetermined overhead allocation rate = $540,000 / 9000 machine hours = $60.00 per machine hour
Allocated manufacturing overhead cost = Predetermined overhead allocation rate × Actual quantity of the allocation base used by each job
Allocated manufacturing overhead cost = $60.00 × 6 machine hours = $360
