Variable costing $ Absorption costing $

Answer 1

Answer:

Cost of Goods Manufactured  = $115 per unit

Fixed Manufacturing Overhead = $53 per unit

Absorption product cost per unit = $168

Explanation:

given data

manufactured =  4,300 units

Variable Costing = $494,500

Fixed manufacturing costs  = $227,900

solution

so here we get Cost of Goods Manufactured per unit that is

Cost of Goods Manufactured = $494,500 ÷ 4,300

Cost of Goods Manufactured  = $115 per unit

and

now we get Fixed Manufacturing Overhead Per Unit will be

Fixed Manufacturing Overhead = $227,900 ÷ 4,300  

Fixed Manufacturing Overhead = $53 per unit

and

now we get Variable Product cost Per Unit that is

Variable Product cost   = Cost of Goods Manufactured per Unit = $115

so

Absorption product cost per unit = $115  + $53

Absorption product cost per unit = $168
