Answer:

Selling price for Job C $93,300

Selling price for Job M $78,204

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the selling prices for Job C and for Job M is given below:

But before that following calculations need to be done

Departmental overhead rates:

Molding 6.50 (2.5 + (36000 ÷ 9000))

Customizing 6.70 (3 + (13320 ÷ 3600)

Particulars Job C Job M

Direct materials $16,700 $9,900

Direct labor cost $23,400 $10,300

Overhead applied:

Molding $17,550 $40,950

(2700 × 6.50) (6300 × 6.50)

Customizing $20,100 $4,020

(3000 × 6.70) (600 × 6.70)

Total manufacturing cost $77,750 $65,170

Add: Markup at 20% $15,550 $13,034

Selling price $93,300 $78,204
