The computation of the total manufacturing cost is shown below:

= Direct material used + direct labor cost + manufacturing overhead cost

where,

Direct material used = $13,900

Direct labor cost = 165 direct labor hours * $24 = $3,960

And, the manufacturing overhead cost = 165 direct labor hours * $18 = $2,970

So, the total manufacturing cost is

= $13,900 + $3,960 + $2,970

= $20,830

The $18 is come from predetermined overhead rate that is computed below:

= Expected manufacturing overhead cost : expected direct labor hours

= $750,600 : 41,700

= $18

And, the amount paid is

= Total manufacturing overhead * 100 + 20%

= $20,830 * 120%

= $24,996
