MC Qu. 99 The Work in Process Inventory account... The Work in Process Inventory account of a manufacturing company that uses an overhead rate based on direct labor cost has a $5,220 debit balance after all posting is completed. The cost sheet of the one job still in process shows direct material cost of $2,200 and direct labor cost of $1,000. Therefore, the company's overhead application rate is:

202%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what the company's overhead application rate is

First step is to calculate the Total manufacturing overhead using this formula

Total manufacturing overhead = Overhead rate - Direct material cost - Direct labor cost

Let plug in the formula

Total manufacturing overhead =5220 - 2,200 - 1000

Total manufacturing overhead =2020

Now let determine the overhead application rate using this formula

Overhead application rate=Total manufacturing overhead/Direct labor cost

Let plug in the formula

Overhead application rate=2020/1000*100

Overhead application rate=202%

Therefore, the company's overhead application rate is:202%
