Respuesta :

Answer:

Budgeted direct labor cost= $10,150

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production:

March= 1,400 units

April= 1,500 units

Each nightstand requires 0.25 direct labor hours in its production. Direct labor rate of $ 14.00 per direct labor hour.

To calculate the production budget cost for direct labor, we need to use the following formula:

Direct labor cost= total direct labor hours*direct labor rate

March:

Direct labor hours= 0.25*1,400= 350 hours

April:

Direct labor hours= 0.25*1,500= 375 hours

Budgeted direct labor cost= (350 + 375)*14= $10,150
