Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Materials to be used = $64,750;

Direct labor = $198,400;

Factory overhead = $394,800;

Work in process inventory on January 1, = $189,100;

Work in progress inventory on December 31, = $197,600

Firstly, we are calculating the manufacturing cost by adding direct material, direct labor cost and factory overhead. It is calculated as follows:

= Direct material + Direct labor + Factory overhead

= $64,750 + $198,400 + $394,800

= $657,950

Cost of goods manufactured determine the value of goods produced during a period of time. It refers to the cost that is incurred to convert the raw material into the finished goods.

Therefore, the cost of goods manufactured is calculated as follows:

= Manufacturing cost + Opening work in process - Closing work in in process inventory

= $657,950 + $189,100 - $197,600

= $649,450

arlik [135]

Answer:

If compounded weekly =

No of weeks in a year=52

N= 52

EAR= (1+I/N)^N -1

=(1+0.12/52)^52 -1

=0.127=12.7% EAR

If compounded semiannually

N= 2

EAR= (1+0.13/2)^2 -1

=13.42%

It is better to borrow at 12% compounded weekly as the EAR is lower than 13% compounded semi annually.
