    A. $400,000

    B. $6 per machine hour

    Explanation:

    A. The computation of budgeted variable manufacturing overhead is shown below:-

    Budgeted variable overhead cost = Four quarters * Variable manufacturing overhead rate

    = (35,000 + 20,000 + 15,000 + 30,000) * $4

    = 100,000 * $4

    = $400,000

    B. The computation of predetermined overhead rate is shown below:-

    Predetermined rate = Variable manufacturing overhead rate + Fixed manufacturing overhead) : Total machine hours

    = $400,000 + ($50,000 * $4) : 100,000

    = $6 per machine hour
