Answer 1

Answer:

$534,000

Explanation:

Given that;

Direct materials used = $208,000

Overhead applied = $184,000

Total manufacturing costs = $926,000

We know that the total manufacturing cost is calculated as seen below.

Total manufacturing cost

= Direct materials used + Direct labor + Allocated overhead

$926,000 = $208,000 + Direct labor + $184,000

Direct labor = $926,000 - $208,000 - $184,000

Direct labor = $534,000

Therefore, Sheffield Corp's direct labor cost for the year is $534,000
