    Manufacturing Overhead Budgets:

    Quarter 1:

    Variable Overhead - $20,730

    Fixed Overhead - $35,180

    Total for quarter 1 = $55,910

    Quarter 2:

    Variable Overhead - $25,100

    Fixed Overhead - $35,180

    Total for quarter 2 = $60,280

    Quarter 3:

    Variable Overhead - $29,470

    Fixed Overhead - $35,180

    Total for quarter 3 = $64,650

    Quarter 4:

    Variable Overhead - $33,840

    Fixed Overhead - $35,180

    Total for quarter 4 = $69,020

    Total for the year:

    Variable Overhead $ (20,730 + 25,100 + 29,470 + 33,840) = $109,140

    Fixed Overhead $ (35,180 x 4) = $140,720

    Total = $249,860

    Explanation:

    a) Fixed overhead is estimated to be $35,180 each quarter. So the total for the year will be $35,180 x 4 quarters = $140,720.

    b) The variable overhead in the first quarter was estimated to be $20,730. In the second quarter, it will increase by $4,370, to give $25,100 (20,730 + 4,370).

    In the third quarter, it will increase by $4,370 on the second quarter's to give $29,470 (25,100 + 4,370).

    In the fourth quarter, it will increase by $4,370 on the figure of the third quarter to give $33,840 (29,470 + 4,370).
