Predetermined Overhead Rate

Predetermined overhead rate, abbreviated as POHR, is the allocation rate that is assigned to products or job orders at the beginning of a project.  

Predetermined Overhead Rate Formula

\( POHR \;=\;  \dfrac{ MOHR }{ ABP }  \) 
Symbol
\( POHR \) = predetermined overhead rate
\( MOHR \) = estimated manufacturing overhead rate
\( ABP \) = estimated units of the allocation base for the period
