13. TEB estimated the following production cost for 1,000 units of product for job 588 during 2022:

Direct materials: 600 pounds at $5 per pound = $3,000

Direct labor: 2,000 hours at $10 per hour = $20,000

Manufacturing overhead ($65,000 estimated for the year divided by

6,000 estimated machine hours = $10.8333 per machine hour):
