Particulars Amount ($) Amount ($)
Cost of Direct Material Used (given) 297,700
Direct Labour Cost 251,300
Manufacturing Overhead (9,200*44) 404,800
Total manufacturing overhead 404,800

Add: Beginning Work in Process 0
Less: Closing Work in Process (Manufacturing cost minus transferred to finished goods) 0
Cost of goods manufactured 953,800
