Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

a. $26

b. $23

c. $34

d. $29

e. $21

f. $11

g. $14

h. $11

Explanation:

a. Variable cost per unit.

Variable cost per unit = Variable Manufacturing Costs + Variable Non - Manufacturing Costs

= $12 + $9 + $2 + $3

= $26

b. Variable production cost per unit.

Variable production cost per unit = Variable Manufacturing Cost

= $12 + $9 + $2

= $23

c. Full cost per unit.

Full cost per unit = Manufacturing and Non - Manufacturing (Variable and Fixed)

= $12 + $9 + $2 + $3 + $47,500/23,750 units + $142,500/23,750 units

= $12 + $9 + $2 + $3 + $2 + $6

= $34

d. Full absorption cost per unit.

Full absorption cost per unit = Variable Manufacturing Costs + Fixed Manufacturing Costs

= $12 + $9 + $2 + $6

= $29

e. Prime cost per unit.

Prime cost per unit = Direct Manufacturing Costs'

= $12 + $ 9

= $ 21

f. Conversion cost per unit.

Conversion cost per unit = Direct Labor Costs + Overheads Costs

= $9 + $2

= $11

g. Contribution margin per unit.

Contribution margin per unit = Sales - Variable Costs

= $ 40 - $26

= $ 14

h. Gross margin per unit.

Gross margin per unit = Sales - Full absorption cost per unit

= $40 - $29

= $11
