11. © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2000 Irwin/McGraw-Hill Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost for the coming period Estimated total units in the allocation base for the coming period POHR = The predetermined overhead rate (POHR) used to apply overhead to jobs is determined before the period begins. Application of Manufacturing Overhead Ideally, the allocation base is a cost driver that causes overhead.

12. © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2000 Irwin/McGraw-Hill Application of Manufacturing Overhead Overhead applied = POHR × Actual activity Actual amount of the cost driver such as units produced, direct labor hours, or machine hours. Incurred during the period. Based on estimates, and determined before the period begins.

13. © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2000 Irwin/McGraw-Hill The Need for a Predetermined Manufacturing Overhead Rate Using a predetermined rate makes it possible to estimate total job costs sooner. Actual overhead for the period is not known until the end of the period. $

14. © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2000 Irwin/McGraw-Hill PearCo applies overhead based on direct labor hours. Total estimated overhead for the year is $640,000. Total estimated labor cost is $1,400,000 and total estimated labor hours are 160,000. What is PearCo’s predetermined overhead rate per hour? Overhead Application Example

15. © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2000 Irwin/McGraw-Hill Overhead Application Example PearCo’s actual overhead for the year was $650,000 for a total of 170,000 direct labor hours. How much total overhead was applied to PearCo’s jobs during the year? Use PearCo’s predetermined overhead rate of $4.00 per direct labor hour.

How much total overhead was applied to PearCo’s jobs during the year? Use PearCo’s predetermined overhead rate of $4.00 per direct labor hour, Overhead Application Example PearCo has overapplied overhead for the year by $30,000. What will PearCo do?
