Answer 1

Answer:

Cost of Goods Sold = $234,000

Option B is correct ($234,000)

Explanation:

First we will calculate total direct material used in production:

Total Direct material=Starting Direct Material+ Purchases of Direct Material+ Ending Direct material

Total Direct material=$40,000+$75,000-$43,000

Total Direct material=$72,000

Calculating Cost of goods Manufactured:

Cost of goods Manufactured=Total Direct material+Direct labor+ Manufacturing Overhead+Beginning WIP inventory-Ending WIP inventory

Cost of goods Manufactured=$72,000+$48,500+$72,500+$87,000-$69,000

Cost of goods Manufactured=$211,000

Cost of Goods Sold = Cost of goods Manufactured+ Starting Finished Goods-Ending Finished Goods

Cost of Goods Sold = $211,000+$128,000-$105,000

Cost of Goods Sold = $234,000

Option B is correct ($234,000)
