Answer:

Explanation:

Joint cost = 80,000

Orapine

cost of 5000 at 20 = 100,000

Incremental Cost of further processing =20,000

Incremental revenue = 5000* (25-20)= 25,000

Incremental income                                   5,000

Banango

cost of 10000 at 15 = 150,000

Incremental cost of further processing =  20,000

Incremental revenue = 10,000*(16-15) = 10,000

Incremental income = (10,000) loss

If  Orapine is processed further , there will be an incremental income of 5,000 compared to Banango that will bring an incremental loss of 10,00 if processed further.

Based on this , it is advised that Orapine be processed further while Banango is not

Sholpan [36]

Answer: A.exceed units sold

Explanation:

In Absorption Costing, All costs be it Fixed or Variable that are directly related to production are considered when computing the Cost of Production.

Under Variable Costs however, only variable Costs are considered for the computing of Cost of Production.

This difference in consideration of costs under each method leads to difference in income determination under each method.

Under Absorption Costing, fixed manufacturing costs are apportioned on produced units and the costs are only recovered when the units are sold but under variable costing, fixed manufacturing costs are treated as period costs and are therefore charged to the Income statement.

This means that, the amount of income under absorption costing will be more than the amount of income under variable costing when units manufactured exceed units sold.

=$ 250,000

Gross profit= Sales - cost of goods sold

= $1,260,000 - $250,000

=$1,010,000

Administrative expenses = $19 × ($1,260,000/450) + $105,000

= $158,200

Selling expenses = $50 × ($1,260,000/450) + $155,000

=$295,000

EBITDA = $556,800
