Direct materials (2.5 m2 × $5.00 per m2)$12.00
Direct labour (2 hours × $15 per hour) 30.00
Manufacturing overhead:
Variable (2 hours × $2.50 per hour)$5.00
Fixed (2 hours × $3.75 per hour)7.50 12.50
Total cost per hat$54.50

Data for January of the current year include the following:

m2.
c. Actual direct labour usage of 38,500 hours cost $539,000.
d. Total actual overhead cost was $240,000.
