    This is what i have come up with, but the question you are asking isnt clear?

    Are we treating Labour and Rent seperately?

    I would presume we treat them as a total figure, therefore:

    Dept A = 28,000/Labour Hrs 1,500 = £18.66 OAR as more labour is carried out in that Dept.
    Dept B = 2,000/1,050 Mach Hrs = £19.05 OAR as this dept mainly uses Machines.

    Also above i have Apportioned Rent & Rates as Follows:

    £10,000 / 1,000 (Floor Area) = £10

    £10 x 800 (Floor area A) = 8,000
    £10 x 200 (Floor Area B) = 2,000

    I hope this is right.

    As the question was a bit unclear i have presumed the above to be the most obvious assumptions.
