- The activity based overhead rate used to assign the costs?arrow_forwardNonearrow_forwardPrecision Manufacturing has a total factory overhead budgeted at $750,000 for the upcoming fiscal year. The company produces two types of window coverings: blackout drapes and sheer panels. Each product requires 6 direct labor hours to manufacture. Management has projected a production of 10,000 units for each product type. Determine the factory overhead allocated per unit for blackout drapes using the single plantwide factory overhead rate.arrow_forward

At what amount should the building be recorded? Helparrow_forwardI am looking for the correct answer to this general accounting question with appropriate explanations.arrow_forwardMorrison Industries estimates that annual manufacturing overhead costs will be $1,200,000. The estimated annual operating activity bases are direct labor cost of $650,000, direct labor hours of 60,000, and machine hours of 120,000. Compute the predetermined overhead rate for each activity base. (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 10.50% or 10.50.) = . Overhead rate per direct labor cost- . Overhead rate per direct labor hour = $ . Overhead rate per machine hour = $ %arrow_forward
