Answer 1

(1) $134; $119; $114

(2) $109; $109; $109

Step-by-step explanation:

Under Absorption costing:

Unit product cost at 1,000 units:

= Material + Labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing overhead

= 42 + 49 + 18 + (25,000 ÷ 1,000)

= 42 + 49 + 18 + 25

= $134

Unit product cost at 2,500 units:

= Material + Labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing overhead

= 42 + 49 + 18 + (25,000 ÷ 2,500)

= 42 + 49 + 18 + 10

= $119

Unit product cost at 5,000 units:

= Material + Labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing overhead

= 42 + 49 + 18 + (25,000 ÷ 5,000)

= 42 + 49 + 18 + 5

= $114

Under Variable costing Method:

Unit product cost at 1,000 units:

= Material + Labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing overhead

= 42 + 49 + 18 + 0

= $109

Unit product cost at 2,500 units:

= Material + Labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing overhead

= 42 + 49 + 18 + 0

= $109

Unit product cost at 5,000 units:

= Material + Labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing overhead

= 42 + 49 + 18 + 0

= $109
