Computation of Estimated Direct Labor Cost for February:

Estimated Direct Labor Cost for February = Production Units in February * Direct Labor Hours for Each Finished Goods Unit)*Direct Labor Wage Rate per Hour

Here,

 Production units in February = February sales units+ Ending finished goods units - Beginning finished goods units

= 10600 units + (12000 units*30%) - (10600 units*30%)

= 10600 units+3600 units-3180 units

= 11020 units

 

Estimated Direct Labor Cost for February = (11020 units*2.6 labor hours per unit)*$23 per direct labor hour = $658,996
