Solutions

Expert Solution

Answer

B. 75,000

Explanation :

  • Fixed manufacturing overhead rate for Year 1 = $432,000 / 12,000 units = $36 per unit
  • Fixed manufacturing overhead for rate Year 2= $432,000 / 9,000 units = $48 per unit

Note : In Year 2 ,out of 10,000 units sold , 3,000 units are from  beginning inventory . Thus for 3,000 units fixed manufacturing overhead rate for Year 1 shall be applied & for 7,000 units fixed manufacturing overhead rate for Year 2 shall be applied.

Computation of net operating income (loss) under absorption costing in Year 2

Amount ($)
Sales (10,000 units * $84( 840,000
Less : Variable costs [($12 + $5 + $4) * 10,000 units] (210,000)
Less : Fixed manufacturing overhead [(3,0000 * $36) + (7,000* $48) (444,000)
Gross Margin 186,000
Less : Selling and administrative expenses [(10,000 * $5) + $61,000] (111,000)
Net operating income $75,000

Note : The Direct labor rate given in the question must be $ 5 instead of $15 . As by taking rate as $15 , answer will not match with any of the options given in the question.
