Step 1: Download the Applying Excel form located on the left-hand side, under files.
Step 2: Then enter formulas in all cells that contain question marks. For example, in cell B26 enter the formula "= B17".
Step 3: Check your worksheet by changing the units sold in the Data to 6,000 for Year 2. The cost of goods sold under absorption costing for Year 2 should now be $240,000. If it isn’t, check cell C41. The formula in this cell should be =IF(C26<C27,C26*C36+(C27-C26)*B36,C27*C36).]
If your worksheet is operating properly, the net operating income under both absorption costing and variable costing should be $(34,000) for Year 2. That is, the loss in Year 2 is $34,000 under both methods. If you do not get these answers, find the errors in your worksheet and correct them. Assume that the units produced in year 2 were sold first.
Step 4: Proceed to the requirements below only after completing your worksheet as it will be used to answer the following questions.
The LIFO inventory flow assumption is used throughout the problem.
