The variable overhead rate is $9.20 per direct labor-hour. The company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $109,120 per month, which includes depreciation of $18,240. All other fixed manufacturing overhead costs represent current cash flows. The February cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget should be:
