Answer:

a. $379.92

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

Direct material per unit = $810 ÷ 10

= $81

Direct labor per unit = $1,620 ÷ 10

= $162

Variable O/H per unit = $3.00 × 80 ÷ 10

= $24

Fixed MFG operating hours per unit = $458,800 ÷ 74,000×8

= $49.6

Total cost = $316.6

Mark up = 316.6×20%

= $63.32

Selling price = $316.6 + $63.32

= $379.92

Hence, option (a) $379.92 is correct answer

First we have to compute the total cost and then added the markup so that the selling price could come
