Answer:
Cost of Goods Sold = $ 400,000

Units Sold = $360,000/ $225= 1600
Sales $360,000
Direct materials $176,000
Direct labor $100,000
Variable factory overhead $44,000
Fixed factory overhead $80,000
Total Manufacturing Costs $ 400,000
Variable selling and administrative expenses $20,000
Fixed selling and administrative expenses $10,000
Cost of Goods Sold = $ 400,000
As ending Inventory Finished Goods is 400 units it is not included in the Cost of Goods Sold.
