Predetermined Factory Overhead Rate

Poehling Medical Center has a single operating room that is used by local physicians to perform surgical procedures. The cost of using the operating room is accumulated by each patient procedure and includes the direct materials costs (drugs and medical devices), physician surgical time, and operating room overhead. On January 1 of the current year, the annual operating room overhead is estimated to be:

Disposable supplies		$367,200
Depreciation expense		66,200
Utilities		38,500
Nurse salaries		551,400
Technician wages		180,700
	Total operating room overhead	$1,204,000
