Answer 1
Period cost are linked with a period and can’t be capitalised with inventory or prepaid expense. These are generally the selling and administrative expenses.
So correct answer is $25000. ( sales commission $10000 + admin staff salaries $4000 + Depreciation sales equipment $1000 + Utilities... sales office $2000 + advertising $8000)
Answer 2
Conversion cost means cost incurred to convert the raw materials to finish product, include direct labour and factory overhead.
So correct answer is $35000 ( Glue $500 + Wages assembly personnel $20000 + wages plant supervisor $3500 + Janitorial wages $2000 + Depreciation Factory $3000 + utilities factory $6000)
