Answer 1

Answer:

$76,260

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the total period cost for the month under variable costing

Using this formula

Total Period cost = Variable selling and administrative cost + Fixed manufacturing overhead + Fixed selling and administrative cost

Let plug in the formula

Total Period cost = ($14 × 1,760) + $18,180 + $33,440

Total Period cost =$24,640+$18,180 + $33,440

Total Period cost =$76,260

Therefore the total period cost for the month under variable costing is $76,260
