    Factory overhead, also called manufacturing overhead, manufacturing overhead costs (MOH cost), work overhead, or factory burden in American English, is the total cost involved in operating all production facilities of a manufacturing business that cannot be traced directly to a product. [1] It generally applies to indirect labor and indirect cost.

  3. Pre-determined overhead rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-determined_overhead_rate

    A pre-determined overhead rate is normally the term when using a single, plant-wide base to calculate and apply overhead. Overhead is then applied by multiplying the pre-determined overhead rate by the actual driver units. Any difference between applied overhead and the amount of overhead actually incurred is called over- or under-applied overhead.

    through a pushrod which actuates the valve via a rocker mechanism (in an overhead valve (OHV) engine); via direct contact with the valve stem or rocker arm (in an overhead camshaft (OHC) configuration). Oil under constant pressure is supplied to the lifter via an oil channel, through a small hole in the lifter body.

    When the twin overhead cam engine was developed, the previous oil pump arrangement was retained and the camshaft became a shortened stub shaft. Even when the distributor position was moved from the previous block-mount to being mounted on the cylinder head camshafts, the oil pump drive remained in the same position, the unused distributor ...
