Answer:
The predetermined overhead rate is closest to $12.10 per hour
Explanation:
Predetermined overhead rate = (Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead / Estimated direct labor hours)
Predetermined overhead rate =($121,000 / 10,000)
Predetermined overhead rate = $12.10 per hour
Answer:
The Fixed-Order-Quantity method depends on when to order a fixed amount. The order will be placed when the inventory level reaches the reorder point. E.g. a new order is placed every time inventory level is below 100 units.
The Fixed-Order-Interval works differently, since the inventory level is checked every certain amount of time, and an order is made when the level is below an specific reorder point. E.g. inventory is checked every 2 weeks.
The main difference between both systems is that FOQ continuously checks the inventory level, while FOI checks the inventory level following a schedule. The FOQ should result in a more stable inventory level and number of orders.
The FOI requires a larger safety stock because the risk of selling more than expected always exists. E.g. you check inventory every 2 weeks, and you last checked a Tuesday. If suddenly a client places a large order on Wednesday, you are at risk of a stockout for 13 days.
