Answer:

Unitary cost= $352

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (291,200 / 52,000) + 5

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $10.6 per direct labor hour

Now, we can calculate the total cost of Job P951:

Total cost= 780 + 5,200 + 10.6*100

Total cost= $7,040

Finally, the unitary cost:

Unitary cost= 7,040 / 20

Unitary cost= $352
