Workings
Given data - Budgeted output 9,800units
Direct material cost per unit = Material consumed * rate per unit
= 40*5.3 = k 212
Bonding department = 48*12.5 = k 600
Finishing department = 30*7.6= k 228
Total direct wages = 600 + 228 = k 828
Rate per hour = Total variable overhead / Total hours
Bonding department = k 375,000 / 500,000 hours = 0.75 k / hour
Finishing department = k150,000 / 300,000 hours = 0.50 k / hour
Variable overhead per unit = Rate per hour * hour per unit
Bonding department =k 0.75 / hour * 48 hours / unit = 36 k/ unit
Finishing department = k 0.50 / hour * 30 hours / unit = 15 k / unit
Total variable overhead per unit = 36 + 15 = 51 k / unit
Production cost = 392,000 / 9,800 units = 40 k / unit
Selling and distribution = k196,000 / 9,800 units = 20 k / unit

Note :-
Selling price =cost price + profit margin
Selling price = 1151 +0.15sp
1 - 0.15sp = 1151
0.85 sp = 1151
Sp = 1151/0.85
Sp. = 117.67%
Selling price = 1151 × 117.67%
Selling price = 1354
Profit = 1354 - 1151
Profit. = 203
