Step 1: Introducing Predetermined Overhead Rate

PREDETERMINED OVERHEAD RATE

Predetermined rate means the indirect cost rate..

Predetermined overhead rate is an allocation rate that is used to apply the estimated cost of manufacturing overhead to cost objects 

Predetermined Overhead Rate is computed by dividing the estimated manufacturing overhead by the estimated activity base. 

Predetermined Overhead Rate:

= Estimated Manufacturing Overhead Cost ÷ Estimated Direct Labour Hour
