Rey Company’s single product sells at a price of $216 per unit. Data for its single product for its first year of operations fol

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

1. Using Absorption Costing

Income Statement

Sales 20,000 X $216 = $4,320,000

Less: Cost of Goods Sold (Note 1) =($1,240,000)

Gross Margin = $3,080,000

Less: Operating Expenses

Selling and Administrative Expense = ($560,000)

(Note 2)

Net Income = $2,520,000

Note:

Cost of goods Sold = All the direct variable cost + direct fixed cost = Direct materials + Direct Labor + Direct Overhead = $20 +$28 + $6 = $54 per unit, Total = $54 X 20,000 units = $1,080,000 + Fixed cost = $160,000 = $1,240,000
Selling And Administrative Expense = Variable + Fixed, Variable = $18 X 20,000 units = $360,000, Fixed Expenses = $200,000, Total = $560,000

2. Using Variable Statement

Sales 20,000 X $216 = $4,320,000

Less: Variable Costs

Direct Material $20 X 20,000 = ($400,000)

Direct Labor $28 X 20,000 = ($560,000)

Variable Overhead $6 X 20,000 = ($120,000)

Variable Selling Expense $18 X 20,000 = ($360,000)

Contribution Margin = $2,880,000

Less: Fixed Costs

Fixed Overhead = ($160,000)

Fixed Selling & Administrative = ($200,000)

Net Income = $2,520,000

Note: Under Variable Statement first variable expenses are deducted to get the value of contribution, and then fixed expenses are deducted to get net income, whereas in absorption costing firstly manufacturing expenses are deducted to get gross margin and then operating expenses like selling and administrative expenses are deducted to get the net income.

But Net income is same in both cases.
