Explanation / Answer

SOLUTION

3. Average costs-

Direct materials = Total direct material / No. of units

= $145,000 / 10,000 units = $14.5 per unit

Factory Depreciation = $29,000 / 10,000 = $2.9 per unit

4. Direct materials-

Unit cost = $145,000 / 10,000 units = $14.5 per unit

Total costs = 20,000 units * $14.5 per unit = $290,000

Factory Depreciation-

Unit cost = $29,000 / 10,000 = $2.9 per unit

Total costs = 20,000 units * $2.9 per unit = $58,000
