Answer 1

Answer:

$240,100

Explanation:

Given the below data;

Actual manufacturing overhead = $57,100

Applied manufacturing overhead = $60,800

But

Over applied overhead

= $60,800 - $57,100

= $3,700

Also,

Unadjusted costs of goods sold

= $59,000 + $215,500 - $30,700

= $243,800

Therefore,

Adjusted cost of goods sold

= $243,800 - $3700

= $240,100
