Question

At the beginning of the year, Rangle Company expected to incur $54,000 of overhead costs in producing 6,000 units of product. The direct material cost is $20 per unit of product. Direct labor cost is $30 per unit. During January, 600 units were produced. The total cost of the units made in January was: Multiple Choice $30,000 $5,400 $35,400

Answer 1

Answer:

Total cost of the units made in January = $35,400

Explanation:

Direct material cost in January = Direct material cost per unit * Units produced in January = $20 * 600 = $12,000

Direct labor cost in January = Direct labor cost per unit * Units produced in January = $30 * 600 = $18,000

Overhead costs in January = (Units produced in January / Expected units for the year) * Expected overhead costs for the year = (600 / 6,000) * $54,000 = $5,400

Therefore, we have:

Total cost of the units made in January = Direct material cost in January + Direct labor cost in January + Overhead costs in January = $12,000 + $18,000 + $5,400 = $35,400
