Complete
the company's direct labor budget for the upcoming fiscal year, assuming that
the direct labor workforce is not adjusted each quarter. Instead,
assume that the company's direct labor workforce consists of permanent
employees who are guaranteed to be paid for at least 1,800 hours of work each
quarter. If the number of required direct labor-hours is less than this
number, the workers are paid for 1,800 hours anyway. Any hours worked in
excess of 1,800 hours in a quarter are paid at the rate of 1.5 times the
normal hourly rate for direct labor. (Leave no
cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Omit the
"$" sign in your response.)
