d) $233,750

Respuesta :

Answer:

b) $302,000

Explanation:

Cost of goods manufactured = Total Manufacturing Cost + (Change in working process inventory)

Cost of goods manufactured = Total Manufacturing Cost + (Opening working process inventory - Closing  working process inventory)

$275,000 = Total Manufacturing Cost  - $26,400

$275,000 + $26,400 = Total Manufacturing Cost

Total Manufacturing Cost = $301,400

Nearest possible answer is 302,000
