Question

Labor rate = $7.50 per hour Labor time = 6.5 hours Retail price of parts = $0 Total job cost = $82.00 Overhead rate?

Answer 1

Total cost job=
Retail price of parts+labor cost+manufacturing overhead

Total cost job 82

Retail price of parts 0

Labor cost=7.5×6.5=48.75

Manufacturing overhead ?

82=0+48.75+?

?=82−48.75

?=33.25

Manufacturing overhead is 33.25

Now find manufacturing overhead rate from the cost of labor
33.25÷48.75=0.682×100=68.2%

The answer 68.2%
