Answer:
Direct Material Cost
= Cost of hardware + cost of wood
= 42,300 + 121,200
= $163,500
Direct labor
= Wages of Assembly workers + Finishing workers
= 87,400 + 74,100
= $161,500
Manufacturing Overhead
= Depreciation + Factory prop. taxes + Factory rent + Glue + Production Supervisor salary + Utilities for factory + Wages for maintenance workers
= 32,000 + 15,500 + 50,000 + 3,030 + 41,200 + 27,800 + 33,200
= $202,730
Prime Cost
= Direct labor + Direct material
= 161,500 + 163,500
= $325,000
Conversion Cost
= Direct labor + Manufacturing Overhead
= 161,500 + 202,730
= $364,230
Total Period Cost
= Advertising + Sales Manager's salary
= 25,600 + 41,500
= $67,100
