Answer:
(A) $625 per order
Explanation:
Processing a sales order shall be based on the number of orders processed.
As the total orders processed are:
JIT = 300
Non JIT = 20
Therefore, total orders = 320
Total cost to be allocated = $200,000 that is the order processing cost of previous quarter.
Cost per order shall be [tex]\frac{200,000}{320}[/tex]
= $625 per order.
Note: The order size do not matter.
Therefore, correct option is:
(A) $625 per order
