Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Beginning Raw Materials $26000

Ending Raw Materials $31,459

Beginning Work in process $35000

Ending WIP $30,113

Beginning Finished goods $14000

Ending Finished goods $28,663

Purchases of DM $73000

Direct Labor $43,853

Manufacturing overhead:

Indirect Labor $40000

Insurance on plant $10000

Depreciation - plant building and equipment $12,294

Repairs and maintenance - plant $4,987

Total= $67,281

First, we need to calculate the cost of goods manufactured:

cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP

cost of goods manufactured= 35000 + (26000 + 73000 - 31459) + 43853 + 67281 - 30113= 183,562

Now, we can calculate the cost of goods sold:

COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory

COGS= 14000 + 183562 - 28663= $168,899
