Explanation:
2.
Factory overhead ($20,000 × 40%) = $12,000

3.
We also know that the total of direct labor costs (X) and factory overhead costs (0.6X) equals $240,000.  Thus, to get the individual amounts we need to solve: [X + 0.6X = $240,000]. The solution is:

Total cost of finished goods inventory = $490,000
Less: Direct materials = 250,000
Direct labor and factory overhead costs = $240,000

Direct labor costs = $150,000
Factory overhead costs = $150,000 × 0.6 = $90,000
