To calculate the overhead rate, we need to derive the ratio of total indirect costs to direct labor costs. Overhead rate = Indirect Cost / Direct labor cost. Total estimated overhead costs are calculated as $2,900,000 + $800,000, amounting to $3,700,000. Thus, the overhead rate is $3,700,000 divided by $80,000, yielding an overhead rate of 46.25.
