Respuesta :

Answer:

The total estimated cost for this job is $28,520

Explanation:

In order to calculate the total estimated cost for this job we would have to make the following calculation:

Total estimated cost=Total direct labor cost+Actual overhead applied cost

Total direct labor cost=total required labour hours*cost per direct labour hour

hence, Total direct labor cost=230*$56

Total direct labor cost=$12,880

Actual overhead applied cost=total required labour hours*Appliead overhead cost

hence, Actual overhead applied cost=230*$68

Actual overhead applied cost=$15,640

Therefore, Total estimated cost=$12,880+$15,640

Total estimated cost=$28,520

The total estimated cost for this job is $28,520
