Answer:
The answer is: $29,000
Explanation:
To calculate Job A3B's costs during September we must add direct materials plus 3 times direct labor:
September costs = direct materials + (direct labor x 3) = $1,500 + $9,000
September costs = $10,500
We do the same for October:
October costs: direct materials + (direct labor x 3) = $2,000 + $16,500
October costs = $18,500
The total cost for Job A3B is: $10,500 + $18,500 = $29,000
