As all the three products passes through molding department we will consider all the three to calculate conversion cost in molding department
Conversion cost in Molding department = Total Conversion cost / Total Products = $55000 / 20000 = $2.75
Total Cost of Casts = Direct Material + Conversion cost per unit * No. of Units
Total Cost of Casts = $15000 + $2.75 * 5000
Total Cost of Casts = $28750 Option C
