Alec Martinez · Answer 1

The computation is shown below:

A.

Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) : (estimated machine labor-hours)

= $357,000 : 8,500 hours

= $42

B. Now we have to find the applied overhead which equal to

= Actual machine labor-hours * predetermined overhead rate

= 8,560 hours * $42

= $359,520

C.

So, the ending overhead equals to

= Actual manufacturing overhead - applied overhead

= $358,000 - $359,520

= $1,520 over-applied
