Answer:

Fixed overhead application rate

= Budgeted fixed overhead

  Budgeted direct labour hours

= $114,000

  60,000 hrs

= $1.90 per direct labour hour

Amount of overhead applied to job X387:     $

Variable overhead $4.90 x 170 hours         = 833

Fixed overhead $1.90 x 170 hours               = 323

                                                                            1,156

                                                           

Explanation:

In this case, there is need to calculate the fixed overhead application rate based on direct labour hours by dividing the the budgeted fixed overhead by budgeted direct labour hours. Then, we will calculate the overhead applied to Job X387 by multiplying the fixed and variable application rate by actual direct labour hours of 170 hours.
