Overhead Rates:

Materials handling = $3 ($12,600/4,200) per part

Assembly = $13.20 ($55,440/4,200) per part

Packaging = $10.40 ($10,920/1,050) per comforter

Overhead cost:

Materials handling = $12 ($3 x 4)

Assembly = $52.80 ($13.20 x 4)

Packaging = $10.40 ($10.40 x 1)

Total overhead cost = $75.20

Total manufacturing cost per comforter:

Total overhead cost = $75.20

Direct materials cost = $14.00

Total manufacturing cost = $89.20

the total manufacturing cost per comforter is $120.4

Explanation:

The computation of the total manufacturig cost per comfortor is as follows:

= Cost × activity consumed ÷ Total activity

For material handling

= $12,600 × 4 ÷ 4,200

= $12

For Assembly

= $55,440 × 4 ÷ 4,200

= $52.8

For packaging

= $10,920 × 4 ÷ 1,050

= $41.6

And, the direct material cost is $14

So, the total manufacturing cost per comforter is

= $12 + $52.8 + $41.6 + $14

= $120.4

Hence, the total manufacturing cost per comforter is $120.4
