Total Cost of Job X4A: $

Direct material cost ($9,000 x 500 units) 4,500,000

Direct labour cost (300 hrs x $15 x 500 units) 2,250,000

Overhead applied (100 hrs x $22.50 x 500 units) 1,125,000

Total cost 7,875,000

Explanation:

The total cost of Job X4A is the aggregate of direct material cost, direct labour cost and overhead applied. Overhead is absorbed on the basis of machine hours. Thus, we will multiply the overhead rate by machine hours and number of units produced.
