    Thank you for asking our help with your homework assignment. However, there are some rules we have for doing so.
    Do not simply retype or paste a question from your book or study material

    We won't do your homework questions for you. You were given the assignment for you to learn.

    If you come up with your own answer or process and post it for us to critique that is acceptable. If you have some SPECIFIC questions that you couldn't find or didn't understand, we may help with that.
    But this is your assignment, so show us you have at least attempted to complete it on your own.

    Thank you.

    question #5: What is the product cost of one widget using the full costing method?
    $10 Direct Materials + $5 Direct Labor + $12 Variable Manufacturing Overhead + Fixed Manufacturing Overhead ($600,000/100,000 produced = $6)
    $10 + $5 + $12 + $6 = $33 per widget using full costing method
