Respuesta :

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Flexible budget for 55,000 tons:

Total Manufacturing costs for 55,000 tons:

= Fixed manufacturing costs + Variable manufacturing costs

= Fixed manufacturing costs + (Tons of steel produced during march × Variable manufacturing costs per ton of steel)

= $50,000 + (55,000 tons of steel × $12 per ton)

= $50,000 + $660,000

= $710,000

Note:

  • Period costs constant irrespective of tons produced.
