hello, I need to fill in the blank AS IT IS BELOW!
Lehighton Chalk Company manufactures sidewalk chalk, which it sells online by the box at $25 per unit. Lehighton uses an actual costing system, which means that the actual costs of direct material, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead are entered into work-in-process inventory. The actual application rate for manufacturing overhead is computed each year; actual manufacturing overhead is divided by actual production (in units) to compute the application rate. Information for Lehighton’s first two years of operation is as follows:
Year 1 | Year 2 | ||||||
Sales (in units) | 2,500 | 2,500 | |||||
