Answer 1

The correct options are

A)$4,332B)$3,734C)$3,072D)$5,086

Answer:

$5086

Explanation:

Total cost is defined as the amount spent in a production process which involves variable cost such as labour and raw materials which change with volume of production.

In addition fixed cost that remain constant with volume of production are also considered as part of total cost.

In the give scenario

Direct materials is $3,044

Direct labour cost is $15 * 46 = $690

Machine use cost $13 * 104 = $1,352

Total cost = 3,044 + 690 + 1,352 = $5,086
