a. $59,400
b. $49,500
c. $143,400
d. $9,900

Answer 1

a. $59,400

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided as per the question below:-

Direct labor = $49,500

Factory overhead = $9,900

The computation of total conversion costs for the period is shown below:-

Total conversion costs for the period = Direct labor + Factory overhead

= $49,500 + $9,900

= $59,400

Therefore for computing the total conversion costs for the period we simply added the direct labor and factory overhead.
