The total amount of overhead costs assigned to the deluxe model is  $64,745 .

Explanation:

Traditional Costing System :

According to Traditional costing system, the overhead cost or indirect cost is allocated on the basis of total direct labors hours, total number of units, etc.

Overhead cost : The cost which is not related to the day to day expenses. Like - depreciation,. insurance, etc.

Steps to compute the total amount of overhead costs assigned to the deluxe model:

Step 1 : First we have to calculate the total overhead cost.

Step 2 : Now, allocation the total overhead cost to the total direct labors

Step 3 : After applying the above two steps, the answer is come.

Calculation is shown below:

Step 1 : Total overhead cost = Standard + Deluxe

                                               = $64,000 + $71,000

                                               = $135,000

Step 2: The total direct labors = Standard + Deluxe

                                                  = 255 + 235

                                                  = 490

After calculating above steps, the allocation for Deluxe is displayed below

= Total Overhead cost × Deluxe direct labors ÷ Total direct labors

= $135,000 × ( 235 ÷ 490 )

= $64,745

Thus, the total amount of overhead costs assigned to the deluxe model is  $64,745 .
