Required:

b. What is the unit product cost for Job 313?

Answer 1

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated overhead rate= 114% of direct labor cost.

Job 313:

Direct materials= $26,530

Direct labor=  10,500

Number of units= 1,400

First, we need to allocate overhead to Job 313:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 10,500*1.14= $11,970

Now, the total cost:

Total cost= 26,530 + 10,500 + 11,970

Total cost= $49,000

Finally, the unitary cost:

Unitary cost= 49,000 / 1,400

Unitary cost= $35
