Suppose that instead of using a plantwide overhead rate, the company had used a separate predetermined overhead rate in each department. Under these conditions: o. Compute the rate for each department for the cuirent year. b. Determine the amount of manufacturing overthead cost that would have been applied to the Hastings job. 3.
