Respuesta :

Answer:

$51

Explanation:

Given that,

Total estimated overhead = $240,300

Estimated direct labor hours = 4,690

Actual manufacturing overhead = $243,000

Actual direct labor-hours = 4,640

Hence,

Predetermined overhead rate:

= Total budgeted overhead cost for the year ÷ Total budgeted direct labor hours

= $240,300 ÷ 4,690 estimated direct labor hours

= $51.2367

Therefore, the predetermined overhead rate for the year was closest to $51.
