    What is the unit product cost that would appear on the job cost sheet for this job?
    Job 397 was recently completed. The following data have been recorded on its job cost sheet

    Direct materials... $59,400
    Direct labor-hours... 1,254 DLHs
    Direct labor wage rate... $11 per DLH
    Number of units completed... 3,300 units

    The company applies manufacturing overhead on the basis of direct labor-hours. The predetermined overhead rate is $37 per direct labor-hour. What is the unit product cost that would appear on the job cost sheet for this job?

    My answer was:DM ($59,400) + DL (1,254 x $11) + MOH (1,254 x $37)) / 3,300 = 73,208.06

    My answer was incorrect. Can someone tell me what I did wrong and what I need to do?

    I calculated $36.20 so I think what is wrong is your brackets aren't properly paired i.e. ((... )+(... )+(... ))/...
