Answer :

Parrain

Answer: $10.16

Explanation:

The company uses a single overhead rate to apply all overhead costs based on labor hours.

The solution therefore would be to divide the total amount of overhead by the total amount of direct Labor costs.

Estimated Overhead Total

= Assembly Overhead + Fabrication Overhead

= 84,800 + 95,700

= $180,500

Total Direct Labor

= Blinks No of units * Blinks labor rate + Dinks No of units * Dinks labor rate

= ( 910 * 4) + (2,018 * 7)

= 3,640 + 14,126

= 17,766 labor hours

Single Overhead Rate on basis of Direct Labor,

= 180,500/17,766

= 10.1598

= $10.16

Overheqd Cost is $10.16
