Golf View Inc. estimates that it will require 300,000 direct labor-hours to meet the coming period’s estimated production level. In addition, the company estimates total fixed manufacturing overhead at $150,000, and variable manufacturing overhead costs of $1.50 per direct labor hour.
What is its predetermined overhead rate per direct labor hour?
$2.55 per direct labor-hour
$2.00 per direct labor-hour
$2.15 per direct labor-hour
$2.10 per direct labor-hour
Answer:
Estimated direct labor-hours = 300000
Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead = $150000
Variable manufacturing overhead = $1.50 per direct labor hour.
Predetermined Overhead Rate = Variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor hour + Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead/Estimated direct labor-hours
= 1.50 + 150000/300000
= 1.50 + 0.5
= $2.00 per direct labor hour.
Predetermined Overhead Rate for Bear Corp. = $2.00 per direct labor hour
