A cost analyst for Stamper Manufacturing Co. has assembled the following data about the Model 24 stamp pad:

The piece of sheet metal from which five pad cases can be made costs $0.24.
This amount is based on the number of sheets in a 4,200-pound bundle of sheet metal, which is the usual purchase quantity.
The foam pad that is put in the case costs $0.06, based on the number of pads that can be cut from a large roll of foam.
Production standards, based on engineering analysis recognizing attainable performance, provide for the manufacture of 1,000 pads by two workers in an eight-hour shift. The standard direct labor pay rate is $15 per hour.
Manufacturing overhead is applied to units produced using a predetermined overhead application rate of $16 per direct labor hour, of which $6 per hour is fixed manufacturing overhead.

Required:
(a)
Calculate the standard absorption cost of a package of 10 stamp pads. (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round final answer to 2 decimal places.)

you need to multiply the actual / forecasted sales by 30% & 50% & 18%

so for September
18% of July ( 2nd month ) is 73,500 * 8.18 = 13,230
50% of August ( month following sale) is 78,750 * 50 = 26,650
30% of Sept (current month of sale) is 85,500 *30 = 39,375

add these three totals together for the answer

so for the month of September the estimated receipts are $78,255

follow the pattern for October and November
