Answer 1

Answer:

Unitary product cost= $130

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct materials $50

Direct labor $47

Variable manufacturing overhead $2

Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 31,000

1,000 units were produced.

Under the absorption costing method, the unit product cost is calculated using the direct material, direct labor, and total manufacturing overhead.

Unitary fixed costs= 31,000/1,000= $31

Unitary product cost= 50 + 47 + (2+31)= $130
