*Fixed overhead is assigned to products using a plant wide rate based on expected direct labour hours, which were 140,000.
Fixed Overhead rate = 140000 / 140000 = 1
For Shoes = 1 * 80000 dl hrs = 80000
For Wallets = 1 * 60000 dl hrs = 60000

*Fixed manufacturing cost allocated to shoes = $80000 for total production of 90000 units, per units = 80000 / 90000 = 0.8889
For sold units = 0.88888 * 80000 = 71111
.
**Fixed manufacturing cost allocated to Wallet = $60000 for total production of 190000 units, per units = 60000 / 190000 = 0.3158
For sold units from current period production = 0.31579 * 190000 = 60000
For sold units from beginning units = 0.31579 * 10000 = 3158
Total Fixed manufacturing cost = 60000 + 3158 = 63158

*If production greater than sale, the absorption costing profit will be higher than the marginal costing profit, and vise verse.. because some portion of direct fixed cost are allocated to ending inventory or ( some portion are incurred from beginning inventory to current period incme statement )
