Question
**Predetermined Factory Overhead Rate**

Novello Medical Center has a single operating room used by local physicians for surgical procedures. The cost of using the operating room is accumulated by each patient procedure and includes direct materials costs (drugs and medical devices), physician surgical time, and operating room overhead. On January 1 of the current year, the annual operating room overhead is estimated to be:

- Disposable supplies: $213,500
- Depreciation expense: $38,500
- Utilities: $22,400
- Nurse salaries: $320,600
- Technician wages: $105,000

**Total operating room overhead: $700,000**

The overhead costs will be assigned to procedures based on the number of surgical room hours. Novello Medical Center expects to use the operating room an average of eight hours per day, seven days per week. In addition, the operating room will be shut down two weeks per year for general repairs.

a. **Compute the estimated number of operating room hours for the year:**  
   \[ \_\_\_\_\_ \text{ hours} \]

b. **Determine the predetermined operating room overhead rate for the year:**
