Sagot :

Answer: $549,520 (choice A)

Explanation:

Overhead is the cost of everything that isn't directly tied to the sale of the product. We will sum the following:

  • salaries
  • rental fees
  • utilities
  • computer system repairs
  • depreciation rate

In other words, it's the sum of everything listed except for the inventory costs. The inventory costs are operating costs and not overhead.

Adding the items mentioned gets us

$474,900+$24,000+$31,505+$7,005+$12,110 = $549,520
