Multiple Departments; Applying Overhead
WoodGrain Technology makes home office furniture from fine hardwoods. The company uses a job-order costing system and predetermined overhead rates to apply manufacturing overhead cost
to jobs. The predetermined overhead rate in the Preparation Department is based on machine- hours, and the rate in the Fabrication Department is based on direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the year, the company’s management made the following estimates for the year:
