Answer 1

The total manufacturing costs added during the period are: $550,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the total manufacturing costs added during the period, prepared a manufacturing cost schedule as follows :

manufacturing cost schedule

Direct Raw Materials ($203,000 - $22,000) $181,000

Direct Labor ($158,000 - $32,000) $126,000

Indirect Materials $22,000

Indirect Labor $32,000

Overhead costs ($126,000 × 150%) $189,000

Total Manufacturing Costs $550,000
