The thomlin company forecasts that total overhead for the current year will be $15,500,000 with 250,000 total machine hours. year to date, the actual overhead is $16,000,000 and the actual machine hours are 330,000 hours. the predetermined overhead rate based on machine hours is?

overhead rate = $62 per machine hour

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

total overhead = $15,500,000

total machine hours = 250,000

actual overhead = $16,000,000

actual machine hours = 330,000 hours

to find out

overhead rate based on machine hours is

solution

we find here Predetermined overhead rate that is calculate as

overhead rate =

put here value

overhead rate =

overhead rate = $62 per machine hour

step-by-step explanation:

you divide the denominator by the numerator on both sides and if the quotients are equal then the fractions are equivalent

9 sandwiches per hour

step-by-step explanation:

when we have a rate, we want a 1 in the denominator

27/3 = 9

27 sandwiches/ 3 hours = 9 sandwiches/hour
