What is the gross profit margin earned by the company?
a. $46,000
b. $55,000
c. $62,000
d. $63,000
Solution 1:
Total Fixed cost per unit = Fixed Manufacturing overhead per unit + administrative salaries per unit
= $25 + $12 = $37 per unit
Total cost per unit = $115
Percentage of Total fixed cost per unit to the total cost = $37 / $115 = 32.173% = 32%
Hence option "c" is correct
Solution 2:
Manufacturing cost per unit = Total Manufacturing cost / units manufactured = $315,000 / 7000 = $45 per unit
Ending inventory = Units manufactured + Beginning inventory - units sold = 7000 +1750 - 6300 = 2,450 units
Manufacturing cost for ending inventory = Ending inventory * Manufacturing cost per unit = 2450 *$45 = $110,250
Hence option "d" is correct.
Solution 3:
Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods manufactured + Beginning finished goods inventory - Ending finished goods inventory
= $250,000 + $38,000 - $30,000 = $258,000
Gross profit margin = Sales - Cost of goods sold = $304,000 - $258,000 = $46,000
Hence Option "a" is correct.
