Answer:
The lowest selling price Geneva should accept for this purchase order is $20 per unit
Explanation:
Geneva produced dolls with Variable manufacturing costs $20 per unit.
Geneva receives a purchase order to make 5,000 dolls as a one-time event and this order is during a period when Geneva does have sufficient excess capacity.
Fixed cost did not change and there was no Variable selling and administrative costs for this order.
The lowest selling price Geneva should accept for this purchase order = Variable manufacturing costs = $20 per unit
Answer:
Under last in, first out (LIFO) inventory method, the units purchased last are used to determine the cost of goods sold. This doesn't mean that exactly the last units purchased will be sold first, it is just used as an accounting tool.
In this case, the last unit purchased costed $20, and the immediately previous one costed $15. Under LIFO, these 2 units would have been sold (COGS = $35), and the ending inventory = $10 (the price of the "oldest" unit).
Answer:
C. It considers fixed manufacturing overhead cost as product costs.
Explanation:
The statement that is true of absorption costing is that it considers fixed manufacturing overhead cost as product costs.
Absorption costing uses the concept of cost drivers to ascertain the quantum of fixed manufacturing overhead cost a product generates, and ties that fraction to the product as its own cost.
By so doing, what would ordinarily have been periodic costs that will be apportioned among products become fixed costs that are directly traceable to those products.
