Answer 1

Cost of goods manufactured= $16,129

Step-by-step explanation:

Total manufacturing cost is the aggregate amount of cost incurred by a business to produce goods in a reporting period.

Generally accepted accounting principles require that the cost of goods sold shall consist of:

the cost of direct materials

the cost of direct labor

the cost of manufacturing overhead

In this exercise:

Cost of goods manufactured:

Direct materials= $7,700

Direct Labor=179hours * $31=$5,549

Factory overhead= $32*90 hours= $2,880

Total= $16,129
