Answer:

Part a.

Yes, variable costing operating income is less than or greater than absorption costing.

Part b.

$247,860

Explanation:

The difference between variable costing operating income and absorption costing operating income lies in the fixed costs deferred in inventory.

The profit in both method is the same if and only if there is no inventory. That means units produced equal units sold (Production = Sales)

The absorption costing method includes fixed manufacturing cost in determining product costs whereas the variable costing method only accounts for variable manufacturing cost.

When the units produced are greater than units Sold (Production > Sales) , Fixed Costs in Inventory increases this means absorption profits will be greater than Variable costing profit as <em>Fixed costs in inventory value reduces cost of sales in absorption costing.</em>

<u>Difference in variable costing and absorption costing operating income.</u>

Difference = (81,000 - 76,140) x $51

                  = $247,860

Calculation for the amount of cost allocated to the Cafeteria under the step method

Using this formula

Allocation to Cafeteria=[Cafeteria/(Cafeteria+Producing Department A+Producing Department B)]×Budgeted costs

Let plug in the formula

Allocation to Cafeteria=[25/(25 + 308 + 287)] x $72,450

Allocation to Cafeteria=(25/520)×$72,450

Allocation to Cafeteria=0.0480769231×$72,450

Allocation to Cafeteria=$3,483.17

Therefore the amount of cost allocated to the Cafeteria under the step method would be $3,483.17

A company purchases merchandise with a catalog price of $30,000. The company receives a 40% trade discount from the seller. The
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

$17,820

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Catalog price of the merchandise = $30,000

Trade discount received = 40%

The amount of discount received = 40% of $30,000

= 0.4 × $30,000

= $12,000

Therefore,

Cost of Merchandise = Catalog price - Discount

= $30,000 - $12,000

= $18,000

also,

credit terms = 1/10, n/30

since, the payment was made within the discount period

1% of discount will be provided

thus,

amount of discount = 1% of cost of merchandise

= 0.01 × $18,000

= $180

hence,

Net cost of the merchandise

= Cost of merchandise - Discount on credit terms

= $18,000 - $180

= $17,820
