b. Under variable costing, the cost of goods manufactured includes only variable manufacturing costs.
b. Under variable costing, the cost of goods manufactured includes only variable manufacturing costs.
Learning Objective 1.
c. What is the reason for the difference in the amount of income from operations reported in (a) and (b)?
Under the absorption costing method, the fixed manufacturing cost included in the cost of goods sold is matched with the revenues. Under variable costing , all of the fixed manufacturing cost is deducted in the period in which it is incurred, regardless of the amount of inventory change. Thus, when inventory decreases, the absorption costing income statement will have a lower income from operations.

You sign up for a bungee jump off a tall bridge. A thick rope with a fixed length of 18.0 m is tied to the bridge, and a bungee cord with an unstretched length of 11.0 m is then connected to the rope. The other end of the bungee cord is attached to your legs.
You step off the bridge, falling from rest. The bungee cord does not start exerting any force on you until you have fallen a distance of 29.0 m (the sum of the rope's length and the unstretched length of the bungee cord). After that, it exerts an upward force on you that eventually brings you to rest, for an instant. Assume the bungee cord, when stretched, acts like an ideal spring, and take g = 10 N/kg, to make the calculations easier. Your mass is 50.0 kg.
You fall a total distance of 54.0 m before coming
instantaneously to rest. Determine the spring constant of the
bungee cord.

Derek decides to buy a new car. The dealership offers him a choice of paying $576.00 per month for 5 years (with the first payment due next month) or paying some amount today. He can borrow money from his bank to buy the car. The bank requires a 6.00% interest rate. What is the most that he would be willing to pay today rather than making the payments?
