Question

For financial accounting purposes, what is the total amount of product costs incurred to make 24,500 units

Answer 1

Answer:

The product cost for 24,500 units is $497,350.

Explanation:

The reason is that the the product cost always includes all the variable production cost and specific fixed production cost. In this scenario, direct material cost, direct labor cost, variable manufacturing overhead cost are variable production cost whereas the fixed manufacturing cost is specific fixed production cost which will form part of product cost. The remainder of the cost left is period cost.

Direct materials (24,500 * $7.7 per unit)                               $188,650

Direct labor (24,500 * $4.7 per unit)                                       $115,150

Variable manufacturing overhead (24,500 * $2.2 per unit)  $53,900

Fixed manufacturing overhead (24,500 * $5.7 per unit)      $139,650

Total product costs                                                                 $497,350
