    The predetermined overhead allocation rate is $2.5 per machine hour

    Explanation:

    Predetermined overhead allocation rate is calculated by dividing the Expected overhead by the Expected level of activity on which the overhead is allocated. It is a rate at which the overhead is allocated to a product / project / department.

    Predetermined overhead allocation rate = Expected overhead / Expected activity

    Predetermined overhead allocation rate = Expected overhead / Expected machine hours

    Predetermined overhead allocation rate = $15,000 / 6,000 machine hours

    Predetermined overhead allocation rate = $2.5 per machine hour.
