A company estimates its manufacturing overhead will be $882,760 for the next year. What is the predetermined overhead rate if the allocation base is 77,626 estimated machine hours? Round to the nearest hundredth, two decimals.
The Thomlin Company forecasts that total overhead for the current year will be $11,764,000 with 180,000 total machine hours. Year to date, the actual overhead is $7,870,000 and the actual machine hours are 83,000 hours. If the Thomlin Company uses a predetermined overhead rate based on machine hours for applying overhead, as of this point in time (year to date), the overhead is
