Logan Pittman · Answer 1

Inventory = $530,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Vaughn Manufacturing sells its product for $90 per unit. During 2019, it produced 60000 units and sold 50000 units (there was no beginning inventory).

Costs per unit:

direct materials $24

direct labor $14

variable overhead $3.

Fixed costs are:

$720000 manufacturing overhead

Manufacturing cost under absorption costing = direct material + direct labor + variable manufacturing overhead + fixed manufacturing overhead

Manufacturing cost under absorption costing = 24 * 60,000 + 14*60,000 + 3*60,000 + 720,000 = $3,180,000

Unitary cost = 3,180,000/60,000 = $53

Inventory = 53*10,000 = $530,000
