Cost of purchases of 350 units
350 units at R6.90 = R2 415
+Freight costs: R294*50%=R147
Total: 2562
R2 562/350 units = R7,32
Therefore option C is correct.

¹ R185 000 (20 000 x R9,25) + R150 000(20 000 x R7,50) + R50 000 (20 000 x R2,50*)
* R40 000/16 000 = R2.50

²R166 500 (18 000 x R9,25) + R135 000(18 000 x R7,50) + R45 000 (18 000 x R2,50*)
OR
Contribution: R40 – R19,25 = R20,75
R20,75 x 18 000 = R373 500 – R60 000 = R313 500

QUESTION 6

a. Budgeted cost per smart id card
9 places; 5 marks
R
Direct Materials (2.5m^ *R3.50^)
Direct labour (2^*R8^)
Variable Manufacturing overhead (2^*R1.50^)
Variable selling costs (not part of product costs) ^for not including VSC
Fixed cost per unit (2 ^ *13,75√)
Total budgeted smart ID card cost per unit

8,75
16,00
3,00
27,50
55.25

If they have not shown the zero for the VSC, you can still award the mark for the “^for not including VSC” if it is clear that the VSC has not been included anywhere and they have totalled/attempted to total their costs (which does not include the VSC). This also applies to the alternative methods.
Fixed cost per labour hour
Calculation of the fixed overhead recovery rate
