Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $171.89 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
<u>To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:</u>
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Total direct labor hours= (500*0.4) + (1,000*0.2)= 400 direct labor hours
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 68,756 / 400
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $171.89 per direct labor hour
