Answer:

Explanation:

Budgeted direct labor hour is defined as the average time it will take to complete a budgeted production . This is calculated by multiplying the budgeted production by the labor hour per unit of production.

Workings

Total overhead budget = 807,500

Night light budgeted production = 60,000

Desk lamp budgeted production= 80,000

Night lamp production = 1/2 hour / unit

Desk lamp production = 2 hour / unit

Night light budgeted hour = 60000*1/5 = 30,000 hours

Desk lamp budgeted hour  = 80,000 * 2 = 160,000 hours

Total number of budgeted direct labor hours = 190,000 hours
