The Corporation applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of machine-hours. The predetermined overhead rate is $33 per machine-hour. The total cost for the job on its job cost sheet would be:

Answer 1

Answer:

Total Manufacturing Cost = $9,347

Explanation:

Total cost for the job 450 is as follows:

Direct material =             $2,057

Direct labor =                     $888   (Note - 1)

Overhead cost =             $6,402  (Note - 2)

Total Manufacturing Cost = $9,347

Note - 1: Direct labor = Direct labor-hours × Direct labor wage rate

Given,

Direct labor-hours = 37 hours

Direct labor wage rate = $24 per labor-hour

Direct labor = 37 hours × $24 per labor-hour

Direct labor = $888

Note - 2: Overhead cost = Machine-hours × predetermined overhead rate

Given,

Machine-hours = 194 hours

predetermined overhead rate = $33

Overhead cost = 194 hours × $33 = $6,402
