    Requirement 1 - Predetermined Overhead Rate is $0.60 per direct labor cost

    Explanation:

    Requirement 1 - Predetermined Overhead Rate

    Predetermined Overhead Rate = Budgeted Overheads / Budgeted Activity

    In our senario we use the formular:

    Factory overheads Applied = Predetermined Overhead Rate * Actual Activity

    therefore, Predetermined Overhead Rate = Factory overheads Applied / Actual Activity

    Note : Moonrise Bakery applies factory overhead based on direct labor costs

    Predetermined Overhead Rate = $2,460,000/$4,100,000

    = $0.60 per direct labor cost
