Also calculate the predrect Labor Hours ned overhead allocation rate, using direct labor hours as the allocation base. Budgeted production units 1st quarter)15000, 2nd)18000 3rd)21000 4th)24000 ; variable overhead cost per unit 1st quarter)$45 2nd)$45 3rd)$45 4th)$45; Depreciation 1st quarter) 3000 2nd)$3000 3rd)$3000 4th)$3000 ; Rent 1st quarter)$5000 2nd)5750 3rd)6250 4th)7250; Direct labor Hours 1st) 12500 2nd)14500 3rd)17200 4th)12800

Explanation / Answer

Computation of manufacturing overhead budget for the year:

1st quarter

2nd quarter

3rd quarter

4th quarter

Total

Budgeted production units, a

            15,000

            18,000

            21,000

                24,000

                78,000

Variable overhead cost per unit, b

                     45

                     45

                     45

                         45

                         45

Total variable overhead costs, c = a*b

          675,000

          810,000

          945,000

          1,080,000

          3,510,000

Fixed costs

Depreciation, d

               3,000

               3,000

               3,000

                   3,000

                12,000

Rent, e

               5,000

               5,750

               6,250

                   7,250

                24,250

Total fixed cost, f = d+e

               8,000

               8,750

               9,250

                10,250

                36,250

Total Manufacturing overhead cost, g = c+f

          683,000

          818,750

          954,250

          1,090,250

          3,546,250


Predetermined overhead rate = Total manufacturing overhead costs / total direct labor hours
= $3,546,250 / 57,000
= $62.21
