A manufacturing overheads rate is the amount of indirect manufacturing cost assigned to each unit of a cost driver. Each consumed cost driver unit causes the manufacturing cost to change by the amount determined by a related manufacturing overheads rate.

For example, if your cost driver is labor hours, you can set the manufacturing overheads rate to $100 per labor hour. Then, each consumed labor hour will increase the manufacturing cost by $100.

In 1C:Drive, manufacturing overheads rates are involved in the production processes. They are used to calculate overheads incurred in manufacturing operations. The overheads are included in the cost of finished goods.

A manufacturing overheads rate can apply either to the entire company or to a specific department.
