Costello Corporation manufactures a single product. The standard cost per unit of product is shown below.

Direct materials—2 pound plastic at $6.52 per pound $ 13.04
Direct labor—2.50 hours at $12.00 per hour 30.00
Variable manufacturing overhead 20.00
Fixed manufacturing overhead 20.00
Total standard cost per unit $83.04

The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate is $16 per direct labor hour ($40.00 ÷ 2.50). It was computed from a master manufacturing overhead budget based on normal production of 15,000 direct labor hours (6,000 units) for the month. The master budget showed total variable costs of $120,000 ($8.00 per hour) and total fixed overhead costs of $120,000 ($8.00 per hour). Actual costs for October in producing 4,100 units were as follows.

Direct materials (8,350 pounds) $ 56,446
Direct labor (10,130 hours) 125,004
Variable overhead 121,194
Fixed overhead 44,956
    Total manufacturing costs $347,600

The purchasing department buys the quantities of raw materials that are expected to be used in production each month. Raw materials inventories, therefore, can be ignored.
