|
$150,000
|
|
Production scheduling (400 batches)
|
80,000
|
|
Production engineering (60 change orders)
|
60,000
|
|
Supervision (2,000 direct labor hours)
|
66,000
|
|
Machine maintenance (12,000 machine hours)
|
48,000
|
|
Total activity costs
|
$404,000
|
The following additional data were provided for Job 845:
|
Direct materials costs
|
$7,000
