Problem 3-12 (Algo) Predetermined Overhead Rate; Disposing of Underapplied or Overapplied Overhead [LO3-4]
Luzadis Company makes furniture using the latest automated technology. The company uses a job-order costing system and applies manufacturing overhead cost to products based on machine-hours. The predetermined overhead rate was based on a cost formula that estimates $1,615,000 of total manufacturing overhead for an estimated activity level of 85,000 machine-hours.
