Manufacturing overhead for July will be $55000

Explanation:

We have given budgeted labor hour in month of July = 20000

Variable overhead rate = $5

So variable manufacturing overhead = 20000*$5 = $100000

Fixed manufacturing overhead = $25000

Now total manufacturing overhead = $100000+$25000 = $125000

Depreciation expense = $7000

So manufacturing overhead for July = $125000 - $7000 = $55000
