A company expected its annual overhead costs to be $1,800,000 and direct labor costs to be $1,000,000. Actual overhead was $1,740,000, and actual labor costs totaled $1,100,000. How much is the company’s predetermined overhead rate to the nearest cent?

the contractual interest rate is the interest the borrower must pay and the interest the lender receives, or more simply, it is the interest rate stated on a bond whereas the market interest rate is “the investors demand for loaning funds”. therefore, bonds can either be sold at a premium, face value, or discount.
