Question

The manufacturing overhead budget at Cutchin Corporation is based on budgeted direct labor-hours. The direct labor budget indicates that 2,800 direct labor-hours will be required in September. The variable overhead rate is $7.00 per direct labor-hour. The company’s budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $43,120 per month, which includes depreciation of $3,640. All other fixed manufacturing overhead costs represent current cash flows. The September cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget should be:

Answer 1

$59,080

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation of September cash disbursements is shown below:-

September cash disbursement = Company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead - Depreciation + Variable manufacturing overhead

= $43,120 - $3,640 + $7.00 × 2,800

= $43,120 - $3,640 + $19,600

= $62,720 - $3,640

= $59,080

Therefore for computing the September cash disbursement we simply applied the above formula.
