Answer:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production= 8,000 units

Direct labor hours= 4*8,000= 32,000 hours

To calculate the predetermined overhead rate, we need the estimated overhead costs. We don't have the number, but I will provide a fake number, and determine the overhead rate.

Estimated overhead costs= $1,500,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,500,000 / 32,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $46.875 per direct labor hour
