Answer:
$499,400
Explanation:
Given that
Units sold = 8,800
Administrative expense = $7
Fixed manufacturing overhead = $297,000
Fixed selling and administrative expense = $140,800
The computation of total period cost using the variable costing is given below:-
Variable selling and administrative
= 8,800 × $7
= $61,600
So,
Total period cost using the variable costing
= Variable selling and administrative + Fixed manufacturing overhead + Fixed selling and administrative expense
= $61,600 + $297,000 + $140,800
= $499,400
