Answer:

Net income under absorption costing = $101980

Step-by-step explanation:

Below is the following calculation:

Net income based on variable costing = $86500

Rise in inventory = (4000 - 2200) x 8.60 = $15480

Now find the net income under absorption costing by adding the rise in inventory in the net income based on variable costing.

Net income under absorption costing = $86500 + $15480

Net income under absorption costing = $101980
