In an attempt to improve budgeting, the controller for Engersol, Inc., has developed a flexible budget for overhead costs. Engersol, Inc., makes two types of products, commercial floor cleaners and household floor cleaners. The company expects to produce 300,000 units of the commercial cleaner and 140,000 units of the household cleaner during the coming year. The commercial cleaner requires 0.10 direct labor hour per unit, and the household cleaner requires 0.16. The controller has developed the following cost formulas for each of the four overhead items:   Cost Formula           Maintenance $34,300 + $1.25 DLH Power $0.50 DLH Indirect labor $68,200 + $2.30 DLH Rent $31,700 Required: Question Content Area 1.
