Answer 1

Answer:

Work in process= $192,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct materials used in production 40,000

Direct labor 10,000

Variable manufacturing overhead 2,000

Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 140,000

The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.

Work in process= 40,000 + 10,000 + 2,000 + 140,000

Work in process= $192,000
