    Explanation:

    Given:

    Cosi Company's Incurred over head for the next period = $830,000

    Expected labor hours = 53,000

    Cost of labor = $10.00 per hour

    Thus,

    Total labor cost = 53,000 * $10.00 = $530,000

    Now,

    the Cosi Company's predetermined overhead rate will be calculated as:

    Predetermined overhead rate = Incurred overhead / Total labor cost

    on substituting the respective values, we get

    Predetermined overhead rate = ($830,000 / 530,000) = 1.566

    or

    Predetermined overhead rate = 1.566 * 100% = 156.6%
