a) Direct Materials Purchased during the year : End of Year Inv + End of Yr WIP + Direct materials used - Beg Inv - Beg WIP
=20,000+25,000 +20,000 - 17,000 - 18,000 = $30,000.
B)Total Mfg costs charged to production : Direct Materials + direct labour + overheads - ( change in materials Inv + change in WIP)
= 20000 +10000 +40,000 - ( 3000+7000) = $60,000
C)Cost of finished goods = Total manufacturing cost ; same as above.
d) Cost of goods sold = Total Manufacturing cost - change in finsihed goods Inv = 60,000 - 3000 = 57,000.
e)Overhead application rate = total overhead/labour = 40000/10000 = 4times. or 400%.
