    The estimated direct labor hour is 140,000

    Explanation:

    For computing the direct labor hours, first, we have to compute the predetermined overhead rate. The formula is shown below:

    Predetermined overhead rate = (Applied overhead) : (estimated direct labor-hours)

    = $80,000 : 10,000 hours

    = $8

    Now the direct labor hours equal to

    = Estimated overhead : predetermined overhead rate

    = $1,120,000 : $8

    = 140,000
