assume the fixed overhead per unit was $1.50 for both the beginning and ending inventory. what is net income under absorption co

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Net income under absorption costing is $904,370.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete and it contains an error in the only available data. The complete correct question is therefore provided before the question is answered as follows:

Kluber, Inc. had net income of $908,000 based on variable costing. Beginning and ending inventories were 55,800 units and 53,600 units, respectively. Assume the fixed overhead per unit was $1.65 for both the beginning and ending inventory. What is net income under absorption costing?

The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:

Variable costing is a costing technique that takes only the variable cost into consideration and exclude the fixed manufacturing overhead from the production production cost of a product.

Absorption costing is a costing technique in which the fixed overhead cost of production is allocated to products produced.

For this question, net income under absorption costing can be determined as follows:

Net income based on variable costing = $908,000

Total beginning fixed overhead = Beginning inventories * Fixed overhead per unit = 55,800 * $1.65 = $92,070

Total ending fixed overhead = Ending inventories * Fixed overhead per unit = 53,600 * $1.65 = $88,440

Adjustment for fixed overhead for the period = Total ending fixed overhead - Total beginning fixed overhead = $88,440 - $92,070 = -$3,630

Net income under absorption costing = Net income based on variable costing + Adjustment for fixed overhead for the period = $908,000 + (-$3,630) = $908,000 - $3,630 = $904,370

Therefore, net income under absorption costing is $904,370.
