    Instructions are listed below.

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    1st Quarter 2nd Quarter 3rd Quarter 4th Quarter

    Budgeted direct labor-hours 8,800 8,600 8,900 8,300

    Total units = 34,600 units

    The company's variable manufacturing overhead rate is $3.00 per direct labor-hour and the company's fixed manufacturing overhead is $56,000 per quarter. The only noncash item included in fixed manufacturing overhead is depreciation, which is $14,000 per quarter.

    1) Variable overhead = 34,600*3 = $103,800

    Fixed overhead = (56,000-14,000) * 4 = $168,000

    Total overhead = $271,800

    2) Estimated manufacturing overhead rate = total estimated overhead costs for the period / total amount of allocation base

    Estimated manufacturing overhead rate = 271,800/34,600 = $7.85 per direct labor hour.
