Recently. Job T687 was completed with the following characteristics:
Number of units in the job 10
Total machine-hours
Direct materials
Direct labor cost $ 580 $1,160
The total job cost for Job T687 is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculation to 2 decimal places)

$1960

Explanation:

The computation of the total cost is shown below:

Total variable overhead estimated is

= (4 × 31400)

= $125600

Now

total overhead estimated is

= Total variable overhead estimated + Total fixed overhead estimated

= $125600 + 219800

= $345400

Now predetermined overhead rate is

= $345400 ÷ 31400

= $11 per machine hour

Now total overhead applied is

= (11 × 20)

= $220

So,  total job cost is

= Direct material + Direct labor + Total overhead

= (580+1160+220)

 = $1960
