Givens:
Direct labor = 0.25 × Conversion cost
Manufacturing overhead = $108,750
Conversion cost = Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead
Conversion cost = Direct labor + $108,750
Conversion cost = 0.25 × Conversion cost + $108,750
0.75 × Conversion cost = $108,750
Conversion cost = $108,750 ÷ 0.75
Conversion cost = $145,000
Direct labor = 0.25 × Conversion cost = 0.25 × $145,000 = $36,250
A manufacturing company prepays its insurance coverage for a three-year period. The premium for the three years is $5,040 and is paid at the beginning of the first year.
