Answer:

$807,500

Explanation:

First determine the cost per unit (U) as a function of cost of materials (M):

M = 2 * $2.00 = $4.00

And cost of labor and overhead (L):

L = 2.7*($20.00+$10.00)

L= $81.00

Total cost per unit is:

U = M + L = $4.00+ $81.00

U = $85.00

The estimate cost of goods sold for the month of May (C) is the product of the cost per unit by the number of units sold during the month (9,500):

C= $85.00*9,500

C= $807,500

Therefore, the estimated cost of goods sold for May is closest to $807,500
