(Do not round intermediate calculations.) Cost of goods sold

Answer 1

Predetermine overhead rate = (2500*1.4+1500*2.2+25000)/4000 = 7.95 per MH

	Job P	Job Q
Direct material	13000	8000
Direct labor	21000	7500
Overhead	2300*7.95 = 18285	13515
Total	52285	29015

Cost of goods sold = 52285+29015 = 81300
