Talan Gross · Answer 1

Total cost = $8993

Explanation:

Total manufacturing cost is the aggregate amount of cost incurred by a business to produce goods in a reporting period.

Generally accepted accounting principles require that the cost of goods sold shall consist of:

the cost of direct materials

the cost of direct labor

the cost of manufacturing overhead

In this exercise:

direct materials = $2057

direct labor = 32hours*$21=$672

manufacturing overhead = 216hours*$29 = $6264

Total cost = 2057 + 672 + 6264 = $8993
