Asteroid Industries accumulated the following cost information for the year: Direct materials $15,200
Indirect materials 3,200
Indirect labor 7,700
Factory depreciation 12,000
Direct labor 36,200

Using the above information, total factory overhead costs equal:

Factory overhead= $22,900

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct materials $15,200

Indirect materials 3,200

Indirect labor 7,700

Factory depreciation 12,000

Direct labor 36,200

Factory overhead is all the indirect costs related to production. In this case:

Factory overhead= indirect materials + indirect labor + factory depreciation

Factory overhead= 3,200 + 7,700 + 12,000

Factory overhead= $22,900
