The company also estimated $592,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead cost for the coming period and variable manufacturing overhead of $3.00 per direct labor hour.

Explanation / Answer

The estimated total manufacturing overhead cost is computed as follows:

Y = $592,000 + ($3.00 per DLH)(28,000 DLHs)

Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated total manufacturing overhead / Estimated total direct labor hours (DLHs) = $676,000 / 28,000 DLHs = $24.14 per DLH

Estimated fixed manufacturing overhead $592,000 Estimated variable manufacturing overhead($3.00 per DLH × 28,000 DLHs) $84,000 Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost $676,000
