Answer 1

Answer:

Direct labor cost= $29,250

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production:

March= 1,900 nightstands

April= 2,000 nightstands

Each nightstand requires 0.5 direct labor hours in its production.

Forty Winks Corporation has a direct labor rate of $ 14.00 per direct labor hour.

First, we need to determine the number of hours required for each month:

March= 1,900*0.5= 950 hours

April= 2,000*0.5= 1,000 hours

Now, the combined cost:

Direct labor cost= 1,950*15

Direct labor cost= $29,250
