Question

ProTech began business at the start of the current year. The company planned to produce 40,000 units, and actual production conformed to expectations. Sales totaled 37,000 units at $42 each. Costs incurred were: Variable manufacturing overhead per unit $ 19 Fixed manufacturing overhead 240,000 Variable selling and administrative cost per unit 7 Fixed selling and administrative cost per unit 140,000 If there were no variances, the company's absorption-costing income would be:

Answer 1

$230,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for what the company's absorption-costing income would be:

First step is to calculate the Fixed manufacturing per unit

Fixed manufacturing per unit = $240,000 ÷ 40,000

Fixed manufacturing per unit= $6

Second step is to calculate the per units cost using this formula

Per Unit cost = Sales − Variable costs − Fixed OH

Let plug in the formula

Per Unit cost = $42 − $19 − $7 − $6 = $10 × 37,000

Per Unit cost = $370,000

Now let calculate the what the company's absorption-costing income would be

Absorption-costing=$370,000 − $140,000

Absorption-costing= $230,000

Therefore the company's absorption-costing income would be:$230,000
