    Total overhead rate = $20.92 per labor hour

    Explanation:

    The predetermined overhead rate for February shall be:

    Based on variable overhead + fixed overhead

    Fixed overhead shall include only cash cost and not to non cash cost like depreciation, as is directly not related to cost.

    Therefore, fixed cost in consideration = $102,900 - $18,050 = $84,850

    Total cost = $8.8 per direct labor hour + $84,850/7,000 = $12.12

    Total overhead rate = $20.92 per labor hour
