Question

Wallis Company manufactures only one product and uses a standard cost system. The company uses a predetermined plantwide overhead rate that relies on direct labor-hours as the allocation base. All of the company's manufacturing overhead costs are fixed—it does not incur any variable manufacturing overhead costs. The predetermined overhead rate is based on a cost formula that estimated $2,894,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead for an estimated allocation base of 289,400 direct labor-hours. Wallis does not maintain any beginning or ending work in process inventory.
