Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Direct Materials = $969,000

Direct Labor = $699,400

Factory overhead = $214,600

WIP = $2,200

Finished Goods = ($2,000)

Cost of Goods = $1,883,200

Explanation:

Direct Materials = $969,000

403,500 x 6 square yards = 2,421,000

2,421,000 + (40,400 - 38,900) = 2,422,500

2,422,500 x 0.40 per square yard = $969,000

Direct Labor = $699,400

403,500 personal journals

403,500 * 8 minutes = 3,228,000 minutes

3,228,000/60 minutes = 53,800

53,800 x $13.00 = $699,400

Prepare a cost of goods sold budget for Daybook Inc. using the information above

Finished Goods ($28,000 - $30,000) = ($2,000)

Cost of Goods = $1,883,200
