Answer:

overhead rate: 17.5

Explanation:

The difference between applied an actual overhead is calculated as follows:

actual hours x overhead rate - actual cost = over or underapplied overhead

underapplied means actual were higher than applied

while, overapplied means the actual cost were lower.

Based on this information we can set up the foermula as follows:

overhead rate x 32,000 -540,000 =  20,000

now we solve for the rate:

rate = (20,000 + 540,000) / 32,000 = 17.5

B. $267,250

C. $205,250

D. $275,250

The answer is D. $275,250

Net profit = 425,000 - 338,000 = $87,000

Common Stock =110,000 + 25,000 = $135000

Retained Earnings = 70,000 + 87,000 = $157000

Less: Dividend paid = -$16,750

We will calculate shareholders equity as follows:

Total shareholders' Equity = common stock + retained earnings - dividend paid

=> $135000 + $157000 - $16,750

= $275,250
