Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost ÷ Estimated total amount of the allocation base
= $568,000 ÷ 32,000 direct labor-hours = $17.75 per direct labor-hour
Overhead applied = Predetermined overhead rate × Amount of the allocation base incurred
= $17.75 per direct labor-hour × 33,000 direct labor-hours = $585,750
