Hi there First find the predetermined overhead rate Predetermined oH rate is total estimated overhead divided by estimated direct labor
Predetermined oH rate is 450,000÷180,000 =2.5
the amount of overhead to be allocated to finished goods inventory if there is $20,000 of total direct labor cost in the jobs in the finished goods inventory is 2.5×20,000 =50,000. ...answer
