Respuesta :

Answer:

C. $14.84 per machine-hour

Explanation:

The formula is shown below:

Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated fixed manufacturing overhead) ÷ (estimated machine hours)

= $838,730 ÷ 72,700 hours

= $11.54

And, the Estimated variable manufacturing overhead would be $3.30 per machine hour

So, the total predetermined overhead rate would be

= $11.54 + $3.30

= $14.84 per machine hour
