Manufacturing Overhead Budget
An estimate of the total costs associated with the indirect production activities, excluding direct materials and direct labor, for a certain period.
Direct Labor-Hour
A measurement unit for the amount of work or labor force contribution directly involved in manufacturing a product, typically expressed in hours.
- Derive the anticipated cash expenditures for manufacturing overhead through an analysis of direct labor-hours and the corresponding overhead rates.
Verified Answer
Variable manufacturing overhead rate per direct labor-hour x budgeted direct labor hours
= $1.70 x 7,000
= $11,900
Fixed manufacturing overhead (excluding depreciation) = $116,000 - $30,000 = $86,000
Total budgeted manufacturing overhead for November = Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing overhead
= $11,900 + $86,000
= $97,900
Therefore, the total budgeted cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead for November is $97,900.
