Answer:
Standard cost is $2.8 for material and $3.4 for labour
Explanation:
Standard cost is the cost of producing 1 unit and is recorded in a standard cost card. That means the amount of the 3 elements of cost (material, labor and overhead) used in making a single unit will be in a standard cost card. It is computed by dividing the total cost by the number of units to be produced.
a) STANDARD COSTS
Cost Type Computation Standard Costs
Material $1,400,000 /500,000 units $2.80
Labour $1,700,000 /500,000 units $3.40
Overhead Not provided -
Total Total cost for I unit of X $6.20
b) BUDGETED COSTS represents the total costs
Standard Costs Total Number of Units Budgeted Costs
$2.80 500,000 units $1,400,000
$3.40 500,000 units $1,700,000
TOTAL
$6.20 500,000 units $3,100,000
