Explanation / Answer

Answer 2: Variable cost = Difference in the mixed cost/difference in the machine hours

= ($39250 - $36500)/(18900-16400)

= 1.1 per hr

So total variable cost of current year = 1.1 * 18900 hrs i.e. $20790

Fixed cost = Mixed cost - variable cost

= 39250 - 20790 i.e. $18460

Answer 3: Raw material used = Opening inventory of raw material + Purchases- Closing inventory of raw material

= $3500 + $39000 - $3600 i.e. $38900

Answer 4:Prime cost = Raw Material Cost + Labor Cost

= $39300 + $23600 i.e. $62900

Conversion Cost = Labor cost + Overheads

= $34200 + $22400 i.e. $56600
