1.) Colby Company estimates that annual manufacturing overhead costs will be Php600,000.
Estimated annual operating activity bases are: direct labor cost Php460,000, direct labor hours
40,000 and machine hours 80,000. The actual manufacturing overhead cost for the year was
Php601,000 and the actual direct labor cost for the year was Php456,000. Actual direct labor
hours totaled 40,200 and machine hours totaled 79,000. Colby applies overhead based on direct
labor hours.
Instructions:
Compute the predetermined overhead rate and determine the amount of manufacturing overhead
applied. Determine if overhead is over- or underapplied and the amount.
The predetermined overhead rate = predetermined overhead rate / actual direc
600,000 / 40,000 direct labor hours = $15 per direct labor hour
The amount of manufacturing overhead applied = predetermined overhead rate * Actual direct labo
$15 * 40,200 = $603,000
The Actual manufacturing overhead cost for the year = $601,000

The amount of manufacturing overhead applied = $603,000
