LO 6.1Crystal Pools estimates overhead will utilize 250,000 machine hours and cost $750,000. It takes 2 machine hours per unit, direct material cost of $14 per unit, and direct labor of $20 per unit. What is the cost of each unit produced?

Answer 1

$40

Step-by-step explanation:

Overhead per machine hour = Overhead ÷ 250,000 machine hours

= $750,000 ÷ 250,000

= $3

Cost of each unit:

= Direct material + Direct labor + Overhead

= $14 + $20 + (machine hours per unit × Overhead per machine hour)

= $14 + $20 + (2 × $3)

= $40

Therefore, the cost of each unit produced is $40.
