Marine components produces parts for airplanes and ships. the parts are produced to specification by their customers, who pay either a fixed price (the price does not depend directly on the cost of the job) or price equal to recorded cost plus a fixed fee (cost plus). for the upcoming year (year 2), marine expects only two clients (client 1 and client 2). the work done for client 1 will all be done under fixed-price contracts while the work done for client 2 will all be done under cost-plus contracts.

client 1
machine hours (thousands) - 2000
direct labor cost ($000) - $2500
client 2machine hours (thousands) - 2000direct labor cost ($000) - $7500
compute the predetermined rate assuming that marine components uses machine-hours to apply overhead.
