Answer 1

Answer:

Net operating income= 27,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Units produced 20,000

Units sold 19,000

Selling price per unit $100.00

Variable costs per unit:

Direct materials $12.00

Direct labor $25.00

Variable manufacturing overhead $3.00

Variable selling and administrative $2.00

Fixed expenses per year:

Fixed manufacturing overhead $500,000

Fixed selling and administrative $600,000

Under the absorption costing method, the fixed manufacturing overhead gets included in the unitary production cost. First, we need to calculate the unitary product cost.

Unitary product cost= (12 + 25 + 3) + (500,000/20,000)

Unitary product cost= 40 + 25= $65

Income statement:

Sales= 100*19,000= 1,900,000

COGS= 65*19,000= (1,235,000)

Gross profit= 665,000

Variable selling and administrative= (2*19,000)=(38,000)

Fixed selling and administrative= (600,000)

Net operating income= 27,000
