The current spot rate = ¥120.00​/$

in US $/¥ = \frac{\textup{1}}{\textup{120.00}}

or

in US $/¥ = 0.0083

Strike Price                     125/$                           125/$

Strike Price in $/¥        0.008                            0.008

Lake Erie Company uses a plantwide overhead rate with machine hours as the allocation base. Next year, 790,000 units are expecte
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

790,000 units are expected to be produced taking 0.75 machine hours each.

<u>We weren't provided with enough information to solve the requirement. But, I will give the formulas necessary to guide an answer and a small example.</u>

<u>First, we need to calculate the total amount of machine-hours required:</u>

Total machine hours= 790,000*0.75= 592,500 hours.

Let us suppose that the estimated manufacturing overhead is $850,000.

To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 850,000/592,500= $1.44 per machine hour

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 1.44*0.75 hours= $1.08 per unit
