    =$67,200.00

    Explanation:

    Prime costs are the direct expenses of material and labor in the production process. In other words, prime cost is direct labor plus material cost. Indirect manufacturing overhead costs are not considered part of prime costs.

    In this case:

    Direct material cost: $120,000.00

    manufactured items: 6000 units

    prime cost per unit: $31.20

    Direct labor:?

    Prime cost per unit = Directs cost per unit + Direct labor per unit

    =$31.20 = ($120,000+DL) 6000 units

    =$31.20=$120,000 / 6000+DL

    =$31.20=20+DL

    DL=$31.20-20=$11.20

    Direct labor per unit=$11.20

    Total direct labor = Direct labor per unit x units produced

    =$11.20 x 6000

    =$67,200.00
