What would be the total manufacturing cost recorded for Job 205? 3-b. If the job contained 39 units, what would be the unit product cost?

Answer 1

the question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar one:

total molding department overhead costs per year = $249,200 + $2.80 per labor hour

total labor hours in molding department = 38,500

predetermined overhead rate molding department = ($249,200 / 38,500) + $2.80 = $9.27 per direct labor hour

total painting department overhead costs per year = $511,100 + $4.80 per machine hour

total machine hours in painting department = 31,000

predetermined overhead rate painting department = ($462,840 / 31,000) + $4.80 = $19.73 per machine hour

Department Molding Painting

Direct labor-hours 81 133

Machine-hours 330 74

Direct materials $932 $1,220

Direct labor cost $720 $1,020

overhead costs 81 x $9.27 = $750.87 74 x $19.73 = $1,460.02

total costs $2,402.87 $3,700.02

a. total production cost $6,102.89

b. cost per unit $156.48
