$560

Explanation:

Add all the costs:

Materials $8,000

Labor $4,000

Overhead $1,000

And we will get the Total Manufacturing Cost of $13,000.

Then, add the Beginning Work in process of $5,000 to get the Cost of goods put into process of $18,000.

Now, deduct the Ending Work in process of $4,000 to get the Cost of goods manufactured of $14,000.

Since they promptly ships the goods, the $14,000 will automatically be the Cost of Goods Sold.

Finally, to get the cost per machine, just divide $14,000 by the 25 machines and we will get the $560 cost per machine.
