Answer:

Total cost= $34,500

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

At a volume of 8,000 units, Pwerson Company incurred $32,000 in factory overhead costs, including $12,000 in fixed costs.

Because the 9,000 units are between the relevant range, the fixed costs will remain constant.

First, we need to calculate the unitary variable overhead cost:

Unitary overhead= 20,000/8,000= $2.5 per unit

Now, we can calculate the total cost of 9,000 units:

Total cost= 9,000*2.5 + 12,000= $34,500

Answer:

Total factory overhead costs =$34,500

Explanation:

Variable cost are costs that vary with the volume of output.

The Total variable overhead = Total overhead - Total fixed cost

= $32,000 - $12,000

= $20,000

Variable overhead per unit= Total variable overhead/ units

$ 20,000 /8000 units= $2.5 per unit

Fixed overhead

The fixed costs are costs that remain within same activity. The don't vary with volume within an activity range.

Fixed factory overhead =$12,000

Total overhead at 9000 units

=($2.5 per unit× 9000)+ $12,000

Total factory overhead costs = $34,500
