Respuesta :

Answer:

$10 per hour

Explanation:

As for the information provided,

Predetermined overhead rate is the rate that is determined based on the expected or estimated level of activity, that is then charged to actual level of activity, which gives us over-applied or under-applied overheads.

In the given case, estimated overheads = $250,000

Estimated direct labor hours = 25,000

Thus, predetermined overhead rate = $250,000/25,000 = $10 per hour.
