(b) Determine the cost per unit for Jobs 200 and 305 at the end of May. If required, round your answers to two decimal places.

Answer 1

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Job 200:

2,390

Direct materials= 7,500 units at $8

Direct labor= 2,500 hours at $28 per hour

Job 305:

2,053 units.

Direct material= 1,480 units at $5 per unit.

Direct labor= 3,000 hours at $24 per direct labor hour.

Bergan Company estimates that total factory overhead costs will be $620,000 for the year. Direct labor hours are estimated to be 80,000.

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 620,000/80,000= $7.75

A)

Job 200:

Total cost= 7,500*8 + 2,500*28 + 7.75*2,500= $149,375

Job 305:

Total cost= 1,480*5 + 3,000*24 + 7.75*3,000= $102,650

B) Job 200:

Unitary cost= 149,375/2,390= $62.5

Job 305:

Unitary cost= 102,650/2,053= $50
