    Predetermined overhead rate for the next period is $0.66 per $1 of labor cost

    Explanation:

    Predetermined overhead rate is calculated by dividing the Expected overhead by the Expected level of activity on which the overhead is applied. It is a rate at which the overhead is applied to a product / project / department.

    Predetermined overhead rate = Expected overhead / Expected activity

    Predetermined overhead rate = Expected overhead / Expected direct labor cost

    Predetermined overhead rate = $66,000 / $100,000

    Predetermined overhead rate = $0.66 per $1 of labor cost
