Answer:

a. $6

b.  $3204000

Explanation:

Given:

  • Product X is 534,000 units
  • cost for materials $1,441,800
  • cost for labour: $1,762,200

(a) a standard cost

As we know standard cost is the cost of producing 1 unit and is recorded in a standard cost card. However, the cost of labor, materials and overhead are used to make a single unit, so

standard cost = unit variable cost =  the total cost / the total number of unit.

In this situation, the overheading cost is not gven, so the total cost:

= The cost of labor + materials

= $1,441,800 + $1,762,200

= $3204000

=> standard cost  = $3204000  / 534,000 = $6

(b) a budgeted cost represents the total costs

The total number of units * standard cost

= 534,000 * 6

=   $3204000
