Answer 1

Instructions are listed below

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Foxtrot reported $65,000 of income for the year by using absorption costing.

The company had no beginning inventory.

Production of 20,000 units.

Sales of 18,000 units.

Variable manufacturing costs= $20 per unit.

Fixed manufacturing overhead was $100,000.

In absorption costing the fixed cost is distributed in all the units produced. We need to find sales revenue.

Absorption costing:

Cost per unit= $1000000/20000 + $20= $25

Sales revenue= Total cost + income= 25*18000+65000= $515000

Sales revenue 515000

- cost of goods sold 450000

income= 65000

Variable cost:

Sales revenue= 515000

- cost of goods sold= (18000*20)= 360000

- fixed cost= 100000

income= $55000
