Homework Answers

Answer #1

Budgted overhead = $360,000

Budgeted Direct labor hours = 40,000 hours

1.

predetermined overhead rate = Budgted overhead/Budgeted Direct labor hours

= 360,000/40,000

= $9 per direct labor hour

2.

Actual direct labor hours = 4,200

Manufacturing overhead = predetermined overhead rate x Actual direct labor hours

= 9 x 4,200

= $37,800
