In establishing the predetermined overhead rates for 2014, the following estimates were made for the year. During January, the job cost sheets showed the following costs and production data. Compute the predetermined overhead rate for each department. (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 1.50 or 1.50%.) Department D % of direct labor cost Compute the total manufacturing costs assigned to jobs in January in each department.

Answer a. 0 Predetermined Overhead Rate for each department: Department D - 1230056 / 1501900 = 81.90% of DLC Department E - 1501895/ 1251900 = 119.97% of DLC Department K - 1145860/451900     = 253.56% of DLC Full question is not visible, so I have calculated Predetermined Overhead rate in % of Direct Labor Cost Answer b. Statement of Manufacturing Cost for January Department Manufacturing Costs D E K Direct Matreials                          141,900                  127,900                       79,900 Direct Labor                          121,900                  111,900                       39,400 Overhead Applied                            99,836                  134,246                       99,905 Total                          363,636                  374,046                     219,205
