Lorelei Adkins · Answer 1

The amount of direct materials charged to job 305 is $4,250.

Explanation:

Manufacturing overhead = $2,250,

Direct labor = $2,250 : 90%

= $2,500

Direct materials = $9,000 - ($2,250 + $2,500).

= $4,250

Therefore, the amount of direct materials charged to job 305 is $4,250.
