Assuming the use of variable costing, compute the inventoriable costs for the month.B. Compute the month's inventoriable costs by using absorption costing.C. Assume that anticipated and actual production totaled 20,000 units, and that 18,000 units were sold during May. Determine the amount of fixed manufacturing overhead and fixed selling and administrative costs that would be expensed for the month under (1) variable costing and (2) absorption costing.D.

What will be an ideal response?


A. 

Direct materials used$150,000
Direct labor80,000
Variable manufacturing overhead30,000
Total$260,000

B.
Direct materials used$150,000
Direct labor80,000
Variable manufacturing overhead30,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead100,000
Total$360,000

C.
1. Fixed manufacturing overhead: $100,000
Fixed selling and administrative costs: $60,000
2. Fixed manufacturing overhead: ($100,000 ÷ 20,000 units) × 18,000 units = $90,000
Fixed selling and administrative costs: $60,000

D. 
Variable manufacturing costs: $150,000 + $80,000 + $30,000 = $260,000
Variable manufacturing costs per unit: $260,000 ÷ 20,000 units = $13
Contribution margin: $625,000 - [(18,000 × $13) + $51,000] = $340,000
