The Standard cost for a pound  of Sheffield's double chocolate almond supreme cookies is $15.10

Explanation:

The standard direct materials costs are $0.80 per pound of cookie mix, $4 per pound of milk chocolate, and $19 per pound of almonds.

Total ounces = 10 + 5 + 1  = 16

Standard Material Cost = ( × 0.80) + ( × 4) + ( × 19)

Standard Material Cost = $ 2.9375

Each pound of cookies requires 1 minute of direct labor in the mixing department and 5 minutes of direct labor in the baking department.

Standard Direct Labor Cost = × 12.70 + × 27

Standard Direct Labor Cost = $2.4617

Variable overhead is applied at a rate of $37.00 per direct labor hour

Standard Variable overhead cost = 6/60 × 37

Standard Variable overhead cost = $ 3.70

Standard Fixed overhead cost = 6/60 × 60

Standard cost for a pound = $2.9375 + $2.4617 + $3.70 + $6

Standard cost for a pound = $15.10
