Determine its product cost per unit.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The Cool Sky product cost per unit is $102.

Explanation:

To determine the product cost per unit using the absorption costing we find the per unit rate for Fixed Overheads for the year as follows,

Total Fixed overheads for the year / Units produced during the year

$528,000 / 44,000 unit = $12 per unit.

Total Cost per unit = Direct Material per unit + Direct labor per unit + Variable overhead per unit + Fixed Overhead per unit.

Total Cost per unit = $60 + $22 + $8 + $12

Total Cost per unit = $102 per unit.
