Answer:
A) $2.50 per direct labor-hour
Explanation:
The computation of the predetermined overhead rate is shown below:
Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) ÷ (estimated direct labor-hours)
where,
Estimated manufacturing overhead = Rent on factory building + Depreciation on factory equipment + Indirect labor + Production Supervisor's salary
= $15,000 + $8,000 + $12,000 + $15,000
= $50,000
And, the estimated direct labor hours is 20,000
So, the rate is
= $50,000 ÷ 20,000
= $2.5 per direct labor-hour
<em><u>If I had any advice for DreamWorks Classics, it would be to insist on adopting the 'organic' approach for internationalising Postman Pat.</u></em>

Explanation:
The Internal Rate of Return can be useful in capital budgeting to enable a company know if an investment will be profitable. It is defined as the discount rate that causes the Net Present Value(NPV) to be zero. If the IRR is greater than the required return then the project should be accepted as it will have a profitable NPV.
IRR has some problems however and one of them is reflected here. There can sometimes be two IRRs and when this happens, using IRR as a viability measure cannot be done because a single rate is needed for comparison with the required return.
