B. Product-Costing

i. Manufacturing Cost Per Machine Hour = Total Manufacturing overhead / Total Machine Hours

Manufacturing Cost Per Machine Hour = 359,520.00  / 21,400.00

Manufacturing Cost Per Machine Hour = 16.80

ii.  Particular                    Amount

Raw Material                     $6,240

Direct Labor Cost              $9,165

                                          $15,405

Manufacturing overhead  $13,104

(780 hours* $16.80)                        

Total Cost of 3900 Hats  $28509

Thus, the Cost of One hat = $28509 / 3900 hat = $7.31 per hat

iii. Total Hats made During the Month Of April    3,900

    Less: Closing Inventory                                     1,050  

    Sold During the month of April                       2,850

    Cost Of Hats Sold During the month of April  

    = 2,850 * $7.31

    = $20,833.5

Cost of Closing Stock (1,050 hat)  = 1,050 hat * $7.31 = 7675.5
