Answer 1

Answer:

$55,660

Explanation:

Given that,

Fixed cost per unit = $48,400

Variable cost per unit = $1.20

Actual level of activity = 6,050 units

Manufacturing overhead:

= Fixed cost per unit + (Variable cost per unit × actual level of activity)

= $48,400 + ($1.20 × 6,050 )

= $55,660

Therefore, the manufacturing overhead in the flexible budget for November would be closest to $55,660.
