1- What is the company's Cost of Goods Sold?
Options:
a. $193,710
b. $154,968
c. $322,850
d. $258,280
Answer:
1- b. $154,968
Step-by-step explanation:
1- Cost of goods sold (COGS) is the is the expense of securing or assembling the items that an organization sells during a period, so the main costs remembered for the measure are those that are directly attached to the creation of the items, including the expense of work (labor cost), materials, and assembling overhead.
0.6*[$0 + 0.75*($115,000) + $76,000 + ($127,000 + $33,600)] <em>(because completed 60% of the Work-in-Process during the year)</em>
= $193,710
80% of $193,710 <em>(because sold 80% of the completed goods)</em>
0.8*$193,710
= $154,968
