Answer:
Lower by $8,250
Explanation:
The operating income reported will be different as the unit level of inventory increased during the account period
.
Denominator rate:
= Fixed manufacturing costs ÷ Budgeted denominator level
= 18,000 ÷ 2,400
= 7.5
Operative income:
= Total Units produced - (Total units sold × Denominator rate)
= 2,700 - (1,600 × 7.5
)
= 1,100 × 7.5
= $8,250
Lower by $8,250 under the variable costing because 8250 of fixed manufacturing cost remain in inventory under absorption.
