Step 1
POHR using traditional method =estimated MOH cost /estimated MHs for planned production
Step 2
12
= estimated MOH cost /estimated MHs for planned production
estimated MOH cost = 12* estimated MHs for planned production
using
POHR at capacity
=estimated MOH cost /estimated MHs at capacity
10
= estimated MOH cost /estimated MHs at capacity
estimated MOH cost = 10 * estimated MHs at capacity
12 * estimated MHs for planned production
=10 * estimated MHs at capacity
12* estimated MAS for planned production
сарacity)
=10 *( estimated MHs at planned production + unused
12 * estimated MHs for planned production
=10 *( estimated MHs at planned producton + 60)
2* estimated MHs for planned production
=600
estimated MHs for planned production =300 hour
ce correct answer is option c. 300 MHs.

Expert Solution
Step 1

The company currently uses capacity based machine hrs to allocate their manufacturing overhead

The rate for capacity based machine hrs is $ 10 , and income statement shows and unused capacity of $ 600 

Therefore the unused capacity in machine hours = 60 Hours ($ 600/10)

Capacity based machine hours = Planned machine hrs + unused capacity in machine hours
