No, Conversion cost is the sum of direct labor cost and manufacturing overhead cost.
Manufacturing Overheads = 20% of Conversion CostTotal Conversion Cost = ?Total Conversion Cost = Direct Labor + Manufacturing Overheads100% = 80% + 20%Total Conversion Cost = direct labor * 100/80Direct labor = 38000Total Conversion Cost = 38000 * 100/80Total Conversion Cost = 47500Manufacturing Cost = Total Conversion Cost - Direct LaborManufacturing Cost = 47500 - 38000Manufactruring Cost = 9500
false, direct labor and manufacturing overhead = conversion cost
conversion cost = direct wages + factory overheads (indirect material + indirect wages)
