Answer:

Total E&P = $ 160000

Total voting Right Sold = 50/ (100+100) = 25%

Reduction of E& P due to exchange = Total E&P*Total voting Right Sold

Reduction of E& P due to exchange = 160000*25%

Reduction of E& P due to exchange = 40000

Reduction of E& P Lower of Total E&P*Total voting Right Sold or Amount realised

Reduction of E& P Lower of 40000 or (50*1000)

Reduction of E& P Lower of 40000 or 50000

Answer

A reduction of $40,000 in E&P because of the exchange.

3. Under what circumstance(s) is reported income identical under both absorption costing and variable costing

When Production is Equal to Sales

Explanation:

The Variable Costing and The Absorption Costing Differ in two aspects. That is the Accumulation of Product Costs and the Accumulation of Period Costs.

<u>Product Costs</u>

Variable Costing = Direct Labor + Direct Materials + Variable Overheads

                            = $ 60 + $40 + $ 30

                            = $130

Absorption Costing = Direct Labor + Direct Materials + Variable Overheads + <em>Fixed Manufacturing Overheads</em>

<em>                                  = </em>$ 60 + $40 + $ 30 + $70

                                 = $200

<u>Periodic Cost</u>

Variable Costing = <em>Fixed Manufacturing Overheads + </em>Non- Manufacturing Overheads

Absorption Costing = <em> </em>Non- Manufacturing Overheads

<u>Units of Closing Stock Calculation :</u>

Production - Sales

100,000-70,000

30,000
