bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sykora, Inc., which uses a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor hours, estimated total overhead for the year to be $12,000,000 and total direct labor hours to be 320,000 hours.

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 12,000,000/320,000= $37.5 per direct labor hour

In April, Sykora incurred actual overhead costs of $1,050,000 and used 30,000 hours.

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 37.5*30,000= $1,125,000

Over/under allocation= real MOH - allocated MOH

Over/under allocation= 1,050,000 - 1,125,000= 75,000 overallocated

Tju [1.3M]
This is because of the rampant advertising activities that can be done through social media and other platforms related to the internet and the global network.

The need for advertising firms is no longer that high because with just a click of a button you can already create your own advertising material and reach as many people as you can. This is the reason why a lot of top global advertising firms have seen a lot of mergers in the recent years of advertising.
