Answer:

b. $7.15

Explanation:

Cost of wages & salaries per bouquet = [($180,000*60%) + ($70,000*50%)] / 20,000

Cost of wages & salaries per bouquet = ($108,000 + $35,000) / 20,000

Cost of wages & salaries per bouquet = $143,000 / 20,000

Cost of wages & salaries per bouquet = $7.15

So, the cost of wages and salaries and other overhead that would be charged to each bouquet made will be $7.15.
