    Cost of goods sold is $9,620

    Explanation:

    First step prepare the Cost of Goods Manufactured Account

    Direct materials $ 9,100

    Direct labor $ 2,800

    Manufacturing overhead applied $ 4,800

    Total Manufacturing Costs $16,700

    Add Opening Work In Process $ 5,800

    Less Closing Work In Process $ 0

    Cost of Goods Manufactured $22,500

    Next we need to calculate the cost of goods sold as follows:

    Opening Finished Goods Inventory $0

    Add Cost of Goods Manufactured $22,500

    Less Closing Finished Goods Inventory ($12,500)

    Cost of goods sold $10,000

    Less Over-applied Overheads ($380)

    Adjusted Cost of goods sold $9,620

    Finished Goods Inventory = $22,500 * 100/180

    = $12,500

    Thus Cost of goods sold is $9,620
