Answer #1

Estimated manufacturing overhead = $400,000

Actual manufacturing overhead = $415,000

Actual direct labor hour = 21,000

Manufacturing overhead applied = $420,000

Manufacturing overhead applied = Actual direct labor hour x Predetermined overhead rate

420,000 = 21,000 x Predetermined overhead rate

Predetermined overhead rate = $20 per direct labor hour

Predetermined overhead rate =  Estimated manufacturing overhead/ Estimated direct labor hours

20 = 400,000/Estimated direct labor hours

Estimated direct labor hours = 20,000

Hence, the given statement ""estimated number of direct labor hours is $25,000"" is false.

Estimated number of direct labor hours is 20,000.

Kindly comment if you need further assistance. Thanks‼!
