Cevap
The total factory overhead cost to be charged to the Manufacturing Account is ₦375,000.
Factory overheads include all indirect costs relating to manufacturing activities. In this scenario, the supervisor's salary (₦180,000), adjusted power and fuel (₦95,000 less ₦15,000 prepaid = ₦80,000), factory machinery depreciation (₦65,000), and adjusted factory rates and insurance (₦40,000 plus ₦10,000 accrued = ₦50,000) are summed to give ₦375,000. Direct wages belong in prime cost, and office salaries belong in the profit and loss account.
