Respuesta :

Answer:

$140,000

Explanation:

The  difference between operating incomes under absorption costing and variable costing based on fixed expenses is shown below:

Variable costing:

Fixed manufacturing overhead in production $750,000

Absorption costing:

The Fixed cost would be

= Beginning fixed manufacturing overhead in inventory + Fixed manufacturing overhead in production - Ending fixed manufacturing overhead in inventory

= $190,000 + $750,000 - $50,000

= $890,000

So, the difference would be

= $890,000 - $750,000

= $140,000
