Tyler's Consulting Company has purchased a new $15,000 copier. This overhead cost will be shared by the purchasing, accounting, and information technology departments since those are the only departments which will be able to access the machine. The company has decided to allocate the cost based on the number of copies made by each department. The copier is estimated to provide 1 million copies over its life. Each division has estimated the number of copies which will be made over the life of the copier.

Purchasing             350,000
Accounting             200,000
Information Tech    425,000
