Direct materials1 pound plastic at $6.00 per pound		$ 6.00
Direct labor2.5 hours at $12.10 per hour		30.25
Variable manufacturing overhead		18.75
Fixed manufacturing overhead		21.25
Total standard cost per unit		$76.25

The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate is $16.00 per direct labor hour ($40.00 2.5). It was computed from a master manufacturing overhead budget based on normal production of 12,750 direct labor hours (5,100 units) for the month. The master budget showed total variable costs of $95,625 ($7.50 per hour) and total fixed overhead costs of $108,375 ($8.50 per hour).
