Question

Wolsey Industries Inc. expects to maintain the same inventories at the end of 20Y3 as at the beginning of the year. The total of all production costs for the year is therefore assumed to be equal to the cost of goods sold. With this in mind, the various department heads were asked to submit estimates of the costs for their departments during the year. A summary report of these estimates is as follows:

1		Estimated Fixed Cost	Estimated Variable Cost (per unit sold)
2	Production costs:
3	Direct materials	—	$56.00
4	Direct labor	—	36.00
5	Factory overhead	$194,000.00	20.00
6	Selling expenses:
7	Sales salaries and commissions	110,000.00	8.00
8	Advertising	42,000.00	—
9	Travel	13,000.00	—
10	Miscellaneous selling expense	7,000.00	1.00
11	Administrative expenses:
12	Office and officers’ salaries	124,600.00	—
13	Supplies	8,000.00	6.00
14	Miscellaneous administrative expense	15,000.00	1.00
15	Total	$513,600.00	$128.00

It is expected that 21,400 units will be sold at a price of $160 a unit. Maximum sales within the relevant range are 26,275 units.
