Answer: Manufacturing overhead for the month was underapplied by $19,000.
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that before the closing of the overapplied or underapplied balance to cost of goods sold, the total of the debits to the manufacturing overhead account was $75,000 and the total of the credits to the account was $56,000.
This implies that the manufacturing overhead for the month was underapplied by ($75000 - $56000)= $19000. The manufacturing overhead debit balance shows that manufacturing overhead was simply underapplied in this case.
Answer:
Net income will decrease by $400,000
Explanation:
Currently this business unit is generating a net loss of $150,000:
total revenue - variable expenses - fixed costs = $700,000 - $300,000 - $550,000 = -$150,000
if the unit is eliminated, then the revenue and variable expenses will be gone, but the fixed costs will be allocated to other business units. So instead of losing $150,000, the company will lose $550,000. The company's net income will decrease by $550,000 - $150,000 = $400,000
