Answer:

Contribution Margin from proposal

Cross Trainer Shoes $360,000

Running Shoe $340,000

Explanation:

Preparation of differential analysis for Rocket Shoe Company

DIFFERENTIAL ANALYSIS

Cross Trainer Shoes Running Shoe

Differential Revenue 984,000 900,000

Differential costs:

Direct Material (192,000) (200,000)

Direct labor (72,000) (60,000)

Variable factory overhead (48,000) (60,000)

Variable selling expense (312,000) (240,000)

Differential cost (624,000) (560,000)

Contribution Margin from proposal 360,000 340,000

Differential Revenue

Cross Trainer Shoes(41*24,000)=$984,000

Running Shoe(45*20,000) =$900,000

Differential costs:

Direct Material

Cross Trainer Shoes (8*24,000)=192,000

Running Shoe(10*20,000)=200,000

Direct labor

Cross Trainer Shoes (3*24,000)=72,000

Running Shoe(3*20,000)=60,000

Variable factory overhead

Cross Trainer Shoes (2*24,000)=48,000

Running Shoe(3*20,000)=60,000

Variable selling expense

Cross Trainer Shoes (13*24,000)=312,000

Running Shoe(12*20,000)=240,000

Differential cost is the addition of direct materials +direct labor + Variable factory overhead+Variable selling expense

Contribution Margin from proposal

Cross Trainer Shoes 984,000-624,000=360,000

Running Shoe 900,000-560,000=340,000

Since Cross trainer shoes had $360,000 this means that cross trainer shoes would contribute more than Running shoe which had $340,000 because Cross trainer shoes contribution margin is higher.

jarptica [38.1K]

Some accounting errors that cause the difference between the debits and credits columns of the trial balance are as follows:

  • Errors of omission
  • Errors of commission

  • Compensating errors
  • Errors of duplication
  • Errors of principle
