Explanation:

The following costs were incurred by Smith's company during the month of March

Direct labor $53,000

Indirect labor 18,000

Salary of corporate vice president for advertising 25,000

Direct materials 48,000

Indirect materials 4,000

Therefore the actual manufacturing overhead for March can be calculated as follows

= Indirect labour + indirect materials + salary of factory supervisor + insurance on manufacturing equipments

= $18,000 + $4,000 + $3,000 + $2,000

= $27,000

Hence the actual manufacturing overhead for March is $27,000
