Here are selected data for wilson company: estimated manufacturing overhead $ 247 comma 760$247,760 factory utilities $30,200 estimated labor hours 35,000 indirect labor $22,400 actual direct labor hours 36,000 sales commissions $53,700 estimated direct labor cost $ 326 comma 000$326,000 factory rent $47,700 actual direct labor cost $ 320 comma 400$320,400 factory property taxes $28,100 factory depreciation $65,400 indirect materials $33,000 if the company allocates manufacturing overhead based on direct labor cost, what are the allocated manufacturing overhead costs

Allocated overhead= $254,880

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated manufacturing overhead $247,760

Factory utilities $30,200

Estimated labor hours 35,000

Indirect labor $22,400

Actual direct labor hours 36,000

Sales commissions $53,700

Estimated direct labor cost $326,000

Factory rent $47,700

Actual direct labor cost $ 320400

Factory property taxes $28,100

Factory depreciation $65,400

Indirect materials $33,000

First, we need to calculate the manufacturing overhead rate:

manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated manufacturing overhead for the period/ total amount of allocation base

manufacturing overhead rate= 247760/35000= $7.08 per direct labor hour

Now, we can determine the allocated overhead

Allocated overhead= manufacturing overhead rate* actual hours= 7.08*36000= $254,880

i do belive the correct answer is d.
