The company has provided the following data concerning Job T498 which was recently completed: Number of units in the job 40 Total direct labor-hours 80 Direct materials $ 950 Direct labor cost $ 2,720 The amount of overhead applied to Job T498 is closest to:
a. $568
b. $192
c. $760
d. $952

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed manufacturing overhead cost of $497,000, variable manufacturing overhead of $2.40 per direct labor-hour, and 70,000 direct labor-hours.

T 498:

Total direct labor-hours 80

First, we need to calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate for the period:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= (497,000/70,000) + 2.4= $9.5 per direct labor hour.

Now we can allocate the overhead to Job 498:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 9.5*80= $760
