Respuesta :

Answer:

d. $12

Explanation:

Predetermined overhead rate is the rate at which the overhead is applied to an product, project and department. It is calculated using the estimated total overhead and estimated basis of overhead application like labor hours, machine hours etc.

Predetermined Overhead Rate = Budgeted overhead / Budgeted production

Predetermined Overhead Rate = $240,000 / 20,000

Predetermined Overhead Rate = $12 per unit
