Additional information:

2.  The actual overhead cost for 2020 was equal to the overhead applied

   to production. Thus there was no overhead variance for 2020.

A) Calculate XYZ Company's direct labor cost for 2020.

B) Calculate the direct materials purchased by XYZ Company in 2020.

C) Calculate XYZ Company's sales commissions for 2020.

Answer is:

a) Total overhead = 34000+12000+25000+56000+81000 = 208000

Direct labor = 208000*35/65 = 112000

b) Direct material used = 250000-112000 = 138000

Direct material purchase = 138000+50000-37000 = 151000

c) Sales and administrative expense other than sales commission = 113000

Sales commission = 630000-443000-113000-10000 = 64000
