Damm [24]

Answer:

Cost of good manufactured= $1507100

Explanation:

To calculate the cost of manufactured goods we need to use the following formula:

Beginning work in progress= 72400

Direct materials = beginning inventory + purchase - ending inventory= 519800

Direct labor= 226700

Manufactured overhead= 775800

Ending work in progress= 87600

Cost of good manufactured= 72400 + 519800 + 226700 + 775800 - 87600= $1507100

Finally,you make an offer to buy your neighbor's house doesn't make you eligible for an insurable interest because it's just a matter of a vocal agreement,thus no transaction has been carried out and therefore,no property transferred to your custody either way.
