Annual inspection hours                                 30 hours

Answer  : $6,224.60(B)

   

                                            $                            $

Sales ( $120.80*360)                                                     43,488

Prime cost :    

Direct Materials( 48.14*360)           17,330.4

Direct labours (11.62*360)             4183.2                   21,513.6

Contribution                                                                   21,974.4

Overhead Costs :

Assembly (11.15*1040)                    11,596

Inspection costs(76.9*30)              2307                     (15,749.8)          

Margin                                                                           6224.6  

Margin/unit = 6224.6/360 ⇒ $17.29

Explanation:

Workings

Overhead Absorption Rate (OAR) =Total cost pool/Total Activity

-Assembly cost = 613,250/55,000 = $ 11.15/hr

-Processing Orders = 46,170/1500 = $30.78/order

-Inspection              = 146,110/1900 =$76.9/hr
