Answer 1

Calculation of Total Manufacturing cost assigned to Job Q

Calculation of per determined overhead rate

= Estimated Total overheads/ Estimated Machine hours

=(2500*2.30 + 1500*3.10 +28600)/4000 =$9.75

Direct Material 12500

Direct Labor 11100

Overhead. 3500*9.75=34125

Total Manufacturing Cost =$57725
