    The controller for Tender Bird Poultry, Inc. estimates that the company’s fixed overhead is $150,000 per year. She also has determined that the variable overhead is approximately $.15 per chicken raised and sold. Since the firm has a single product, overhead is applied on the basis of output units, chickens raised and sold.
    Required:
    1. Calculate the predetermined overhead rate under each of the following output predictions: 100,000 chickens, 200,000 chickens, and 300,000 chickens.
    2. Does the predetermined overhead rate change in proportion to the change in predicted production? Why?

    Predetermined overhead rate = Budgeted manufacturing-overhead cost/
    Budgeted amount of cost driver (or activity base)

    150,000/100,000 = 1.5
    150,000/200,000 = .75
    150,000/300,000 = .50

    That's a start but you still need to add the .15 per chicken, given that all those answers are per chicken.
