What is a blanket overhead absorption rate?
Blanket overhead absorption rate is the rate used to allocate total overhead costs to number of produce units in traditional accounting system
What are the three overhead absorption rates?
As far as I know there is only an overhead absorption rate and a full absorption rate. The alternative being marginal costing. There are 3 methods of absorption costing. These being Activity, Time and Efficiency but I'm not sure what you are asking exactly.
What are the Methods used to calculate overhead absorption rate?
Overhead absorption rate is calculated with following methods: 1 - Machine hours method 2 - Direct labor cost method 3 - Direct labor hours method
What is a blanket overhead absorption rate How will you differentiate between blanket overhead rate and other overhead absorption rate?
In Blanket Overhead Absorption Rate applied is the same however it may differ if a company follow Departmental method Or frther break - up method

What is absorption method of marginal costing?
Absorption method is that in which predetermined overhead rate is use to allocate all overheads to departments or activities.
