Answer 1

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct materials: $2,900 VARAIBLE

Factory overhead: $530 MIXED (ussually)

Direct labor: $900 VARIABLE

Beginning work in process: none (December 31, 2017)

Ending work in process: $520 (January 31, 2018)

Beginning finished goods inventory: none (December 31, 2017)

Ending finished goods inventory: $350 (January 31, 2018)

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

cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP

cost of goods manufactured= 0 + 2,900 + 900 + 530 - 520

cost of goods manufactured= $3,810

Now, we can determine the cost of goods sold:

COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory

beginning finished inventory= 0

cost of goods manufactured= 3,810

ending finished inventory= (350)

Cost of goods manufactured= $3,460
