The variable overhead rate is $9.40 per direct labor-hour. The company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $96,040 per month, which includes depreciation of $7,350. All other fixed manufacturing overhead costs represent current cash flows. The August cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget should be:

Answer 1

$134,750

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the August cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget is shown below:

As we know that

Total cash manufacturing overhead = variable manufacturing overhead + cash fixed manufacturing overhead

where,

variable overheads is

= 4,900 hours × $9.40

= $46,060

And,

Cash fixed manufacturing overhead is

= $96,040 - $7,350

= $88,690

So, the cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead is

= $46,060 + $88,690

= $134,750
