Details A20 A21 A23 TOTAL

Direct Material 38,240 44,120 41,870 124,230

Direct Labor 19,500 22,200 25,800 67,500

Applied overheads 15,600 17,760 20,640 54,000

$245,730

Step-by-step explanation:

Material used = 38,240 + 44,120+37,600+41,870 = $161,830 work in process

Labor = 19,500+22,200+15,100+25,800 =82,600 work in process

Applied overheard = direct labor * 0.8

A20= 19,500 *80%=15,600

A21 = 22,200*80%=17,760

A22 = 15,100*80%=12,080

A23 =25,800 *80%=20,640

TOTAL = $66,080
