Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To calculate the predetermined overhead rate, we need to divide the estimated total manufacturing overhead costs for the month of June by the estimated total direct labour hours for the same month. Since we are not given the estimated total manufacturing overhead costs, we cannot answer this question directly. However, we can use the information provided to calculate the predetermined overhead rate using a formula:

Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated total manufacturing overhead costs / Estimated total direct labour hours

Let's assume that the estimated total manufacturing overhead costs for the month of June are $10,800. Using this assumption, we can calculate the predetermined overhead rate as follows:

Predetermined overhead rate = $10,800 / 3,000
Predetermined overhead rate = $3.60 per labour hour

Therefore, the correct answer is D.
