Answer:

Part a

Unit Product Cost :

Variable Costing = $387

Absorption Costing = $403

Part b

Absorption Costing Income Statement

Sales ($466 x 24,000)                                                          $11,184,000

Less Cost of Sales

Beginning Inventory                                          $0

Add Cost of Goods Manufactured            $11,284,000

Less Ending Inventory                                ($1,612,000)    ($9,672,000)

Gross Profit                                                                             $1,512,000

Less Expenses

Selling and Administrative expenses :

Variable ($21 x 24,000)                               $504,000

Fixed                                                             $336,000         ($840,000)

Net Income (Loss)                                                                   $672,000

Part c

Variable Costing Income Statement

Sales ($466 x 24,000)                                                          $11,184,000

Less Cost of Sales

Beginning Inventory                                          $0

Add Cost of Goods Manufactured            $10,836,000

Less Ending Inventory                                ($1,548,000)    ($9,288,000)

Selling and Administrative expenses :

Variable ($21 x 24,000)                               $504,000

Fixed                                                             $336,000         ($1,288,000)

Net Income (Loss)                                                                     $608,000

Part d

Reconciliation of Absorption Costing Profit to Variable Costing Profit

Absorption Costing Profit                                                       $672,000

Add Fixed Costs in Opening Inventory                                       $0

Less Fixed Costs in Ending Inventory ($4,000 x $16)           ($64,000)

Variable Costing Profit                                                            $608,000

Explanation:

Variable Costing calculations

Unit Product Cost = Variable Manufacturing Cost

                              = $296 + $57 + $34

                              = $387

Cost of Goods Manufactured (28,000 x $387)  =  $10,836,000

Ending Inventory (4,000 x $387) =  $1,548,000

Absorption Costing calculations

Unit Product Cost = Variable Manufacturing Cost + Fixed Manufacturing Costs

                              = $296 + $57 + $34 + ($448,000 ÷ $28,000)

                              = $296 + $57 + $34 + $16

                              = $403

Cost of Goods Manufactured (28,000 x $403)  =  $11,284,000

Ending Inventory (4,000 x $403) =  $1,612,000

Ending Inventory units

Ending Inventory units = Opening units + Production - Sales

                                      = 0 + 28,000 - 24,000

                                      = 4,000 units

The difference in absorption costing and variable costing net operating income is due to fixed manufacturing costs deferred in ending inventory
