Explanation:

WEBER COMPANY        

  Production costs per department    

  Assembly  Finishing   total

raw material   $31,900   $23,100   $55,000  

labour cost   $38,200   $23,900   $62,100  

factory overheads   $61,120   $38,240   $99,360  

total cost   $131,220   $85,240   $216,460  

to calculate the factory overheads we take the amount for labour in a department and multiple it by 160% meaning for Assembly department it is 38200*160/100= 61120
