Edwards company applies manufacturing overhead to jobs on the basis of machine hours used. overhead costs are expected to total $1,800,000 for the year, and machine usage is estimated at 200,000 hours. in january, $186,000 of overhead costs are incurred and 22,000 machine hours are used. for the remainder of the year, $1,940,000 of additional overhead costs are incurred and 214,000 additional machine hours are worked. compute the manufacturing overhead rate for the year. manufacturing overhead rate per machine hour link to text link to text what is the amount of over- or underapplied overhead at january 31? overhead $ link to text link to text what is the amount of over- or underapplied overhead at december 31? overhead $

Predetermined overhead rate = $9

January = $12,000 over applied  

December - $2,000 under applied  

Explanation:

For computing the ended overhead amount, first, we have to compute the predetermined overhead rate. The formula is shown below:

Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) ÷ (estimated machine labor-hours)

= $1,800,000 ÷ 200,000 hours

= $9

Now we have to find the actual overhead for the January month which equal to

= Actual machine labor-hours × predetermined overhead rate

= 22,00 hours × $9

= $198,000

So, the ending overhead equals to

= Actual manufacturing overhead - actual overhead

= $186,000 - $198,000

= $12,000 over applied  

And, the actual manufacturing overhead for the December month which equal to

= $186,000 + $1,940,000

= $2,126,000

Actual overhead = (22,000 + 214,000) × 9 = $2,124,000

So, the ending overhead equals to

= Actual manufacturing overhead - actual overhead

= $2,126,000 - $2,124,000

= $2,000 under applied
