Estimated Income Statements, using Absorption and Variable Costing

Prior to the first month of operations ending October 31, Marshall Inc. estimated the following operating results:

Sales (28,000 x $98) $2,744,000
Manufacturing costs (28,000 units):
Direct materials 1,660,400
Direct labor 392,000
Variable factory overhead 184,800
Fixed factory overhead 218,400
Fixed selling and administrative expenses 59,400
Variable selling and administrative expenses 71,900

The company is evaluating a proposal to manufacture 31,200 units instead of 28,000 units, thus creating an ending inventory of 3,200 units. Manufacturing the additional units will not change sales, unit variable factory overhead costs, total fixed factory overhead cost, or total selling and administrative expenses.

a. 1. Prepare an estimated income statement, comparing operating results if 28,000 and 31,200 units are manufactured in the absorption costing format. If an amount box does not require an entry leave it blank.

The interest rate is 12% per year. This means that if the loan is not reimbursed during the quarter then no interest expense is paid during that time.

Of all the times this hard drive could crash, it had to be now, ” Marcy cried. “How can I finish the June financial reports without all the information? I knew I should have backed up the disk last night before I left work.” News of the disaster traveled quickly through the office, and people began to stop by her cubicle to offer their help.

     John was the first to the rescue. “It might not be as bad as you think, Marcy. I have the financial reports from May right here. According to the balance sheet, we had a total inventory of $99,000 at the end of May. And I remember that the Finished Goods Inventory was one-third of that amount.”

     “I just finished the inventory counts last night,” Peter chimed in from across the hall. “According to my tally sheets, we finished June with $80,000 in Direct Materials Inventory, $52,000 in Work in Process Inventory, and $25,000 in Finished Goods Inventory. This was a 100% increase from the balances in Direct Materials Inventory and Work in Process Inventory at the end of May. I bet with a little more investigative work, we can get all the numbers you need to complete the reports.”

     Sally called from Payroll to tell Marcy that the company had paid a total of $36,000 for direct labor during June. Juan, the billing supervisor, e-mailed Marcy that the company had sent out invoices to customers totaling $291,000.

     Marcy knew that the overhead rate was 200% of direct labor costs. She also knew that the company priced its product using a 50% markup on the cost of goods sold. Armed with all this information, she sat down to reconstruct the inventory accounts for June.
