Overhead currently is applied to the products on the basis of direct labor-hours. Data concerning the current period's operations appear below:

Explanation / Answer

1)

Manufacturing overhead cost during the period = 186330

Total direct labor hours = Direct labor hours required in Product C + Direct labor hours required in Product D

= 2000*5.25 + 2700*2.10 = 10500 hours + 5670 hours = 16170 hours

Predetermined overhead rate = Manufacturing overhead cost during the period /Total direct labor hours

= 186330/16170 = 11.52

Predetermined overhead rate = $11.52 per DLH

2)
