Explanation:

Accounts receivables are notes issued to customers after selling them a product or rendering services on credit. The repayment term may vary from 30, 60 or 90 days. If an account receivable is not paid after that period it could be considered as an uncollectible account which implies the company will incur losses.

Accounts receivable are hardly ever accepted at face value (real value of the moment of the purchase) because companies add the interest rate that is to be charged for the sale on the account.

Direct materials= $26,530

Direct labor= 10,500

Number of units= 1,400

First, we need to allocate overhead to Job 313:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 10,500*1.14= $11,970

Now, the total cost:

Total cost= 26,530 + 10,500 + 11,970

Total cost= $49,000

Finally, the unitary cost:

Unitary cost= 49,000 / 1,400
