1. Cash Disbursements for manufacturing overhead = Variable + Fixed - Depreciation

Variable = $1.40 X 8,300 = $11,620

Fixed = $92,130

Depreciation = $19,820

Cash Disbursement = $11,620 + $92,130 - $19,820 = $83,930

2. Predetermined Overhead Rate for July will be inclusive of depreciation as that is part of factory cost and will form part of product cost.

Total factory cost = $11,620 + $92,130 = $103,750

Total hours = 8,300

Overhead Rate = $103,750/8,300 = $12.5
