Salary of the chief financial officer—$18,300.

Salaries of engineers and other personnel responsible for maintaining production equipment—$177,000.
Commissions paid to sales staff—$253,000.
What amount of payroll cost would be classified as SG&A (selling, general, and administrative) expense?
Assuming that Perez made 3,700 units of product and sold 2,590 of them during the month of March, determine the amount of payroll cost that would be included in cost of goods sold.
Payroll costs that would be classified as selling, general, and administrative expense include the following:
Salary of the company president | $32,700 |
---|---|
Salary of the chief financial officer | 18,300 |
Salary of the vice president of marketing | 14,900 |
Salaries of administrative personnel | 104,000 |
Commissions paid to sales staff | 253,000 |
Total | $422,900 |
Payroll costs that would be classified as product cost include the following:
Salary of the vice president of manufacturing | $15,500 |
---|---|
Salary of middle managers in manufacturing plant | 199,000 |
Wages of production workers | 945,000 |
Salaries of engineers and maintenance crew | 177,000 |
Total | $1,336,500 |
Since 2,590 units of 3,700 finished products were sold, 70% (i.e. 2,590 ÷ 3,700) of the product cost would be classified as cost of goods sold. Therefore, the payroll cost that would be included in cost of goods sold is determined as follows:
$1,336,500 × 70% = $935,550
