The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate is $14.00 per direct labor hour ($14.00 1.0). It was computed from a
master manufacturing overhead budget based on normal production of 5,300 direct labor hours (5,300 units) for the month.
The master budget showed total variable costs of $37,100 ($7.00 per hour) and total fixed overhead costs of
$37,100 ($7.00 per hour). Actual costs for October in producing 4.600 units were as follows.
