Explanation / Answer
Hi,
Please find the answer as follows:
Total Budgeted Costs (S1) = 3320000*150/(150+225) = 1328000
+
Total Budgeted Costs (S2) = 2260000*150/(150+225) = 904000
+
Total Budgeted Costs (S3) =1000000*150/(150+225) = 400000
Total Cost Allocated to P1 = 1328000 + 904000 + 400000 = 2632000
Answer is 2632000.
Thanks.
