    Total number of units produced for the period = 662 units

    Explanation:

    Total manufacturing cost = (Fixed overhead cost) + (Total direct labour cost) + (Total materials cost) + (Total Variable overhead cost)

    Let the number of units produced be Q

    Total manufacturing cost = $160705

    Fixed overhead cost = $58000

    Total direct labour cost = cost of direct labour per hour * number of direct labour hours = 2.7 * 13100 = $35370

    Total direct materials cost = Direct material cost per unit * number of units produced = 75 * Q

    Total variable overhead cost = 50% of total labour cost = 50% of 35370 = $17685

    160705 = 58000 + 35370 + 75Q + 17685

    75Q = 160705 - 58000 - 35370 - 17685

    75Q = 49650

    Q = 662 units
