Selling Price $         175 Units in beginning Inventory 0 Units Produced 9500 Units sold 8000 Units in ending Inventory 1500 Variable Costs per unit: Direct materials $           55 Direct labor $           38 Variable manufacturing overhead $             2 Variable selling and admin $             10 Fixed Costs: Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 300,000 Fixed selling and admin $     125,000

Explanation / Answer

a. unit product cost for the month under variable costing = 55+38+2+10 = $105 b. unit product cost for the month under absorption costing = 105 + 425,000/9500 = $149.75 c. Revenues : $175*8000 = $1,400,000 Expenses : Variable Costs per unit: Direct materials $55*9500 = $522,500 Direct labor $38*9500 = $361,000 Variable manufacturing overhead $2*9500 = $19,000 Variable selling and admin $10*9500 = $95,000 Total Expenses = $997,500 Net income = $402,500 d. Revenues : $175*8000 = $1,400,000 Expenses : Variable Costs per unit: Direct materials $55*9500 = $522,500 Direct labor $38*9500 = $361,000 Variable manufacturing overhead $2*9500 = $19,000 Variable selling and admin $10*9500 = $95,000 Fixed Costs: Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 300,000 Fixed selling and admin $125,000 Total Expenses = $1,402,500 Net income = -$2,500
