Answer 1

Answer:

Total overhead cost= $43,520

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.80

Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 3.10

First, we need to calculate the total fixed overhead:

Total fixed overhead= 3.1*9,800 = $30,380

Now, the total overhead cost for 7,300 units:

Total variable overhead= 7,300*1.8= 13,140

Total fixed overhead= 30,380

Total overhead cost= $43,520
