Crane's Bakery makes a variety of home-style cookies for upscale restaurants in the Atlanta metropolitan area. The company's best-selling cookie is the double chocolate almond supreme. Crane's recipe requires 10 ounces of a commercial cookie mix, 5 ounces of milk chocolate, and 1 ounce of almonds per pound of cookies. The standard direct materials costs are $0.80 per pound of cookie mix, $5 per pound of milk chocolate, and $18 per pound of almonds. Each pound of cookies requires 1 minute of direct labor in the mixing department and 2 minutes of direct labor in the baking department. The standard labor rates in those departments are $16.90 per direct labor hour (DLH) and $24 per DLH, respectively. Variable overhead is applied at a rate of $42.40 per DLH; fixed overhead is applied at a rate of $60 per DLH. Calculate the standard cost for a pound of Crane's double chocolate almond supreme cookies. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 3.51.)
