Question

Diego Company manufactures one product that is sold for $73 per unit in two geographic regions—the East and West regions. The following information pertains to the company’s first year of operations in which it produced 44,000 units and sold 39,000 units.

Variable costs per unit: Manufacturing: Direct materials $ 23 Direct labor $ 16 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 2 Variable selling and administrative $ 4 Fixed costs per year: Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 748,000 Fixed selling and administrative expenses $ 400,000

The company sold 29,000 units in the East region and 10,000 units in the West region. It determined that $180,000 of its fixed selling and administrative expenses is traceable to the West region, $130,000 is traceable to the East region, and the remaining $90,000 is a common fixed cost. The company will continue to incur the total amount of its fixed manufacturing overhead costs as long as it continues to produce any amount of its only product.

What is the company’s net operating income (loss) under absorption costing? 7. What is the amount of the difference between the variable costing and absorption costing net operating incomes (losses)? Difference of Variable Costing and Absorption Costing Net Operating Incomes Variable costing net operating income (loss) Absorption costing net operating income (loss) Add: Fixed manufacturing overhead cost deferred in inventory under absorption costing Add: Fixed manufacturing overhead cost released from inventory under absorption costing Deduct: Fixed manufacturing overhead cost deferred in inventory under absorption costing Deduct: Fixed manufacturing overhead cost released from inventory under absorption costing which one? 8. What is the company’s break-even point in unit sales? 9. If the sales volumes in the East and West regions had been reversed, what would be the company’s overall break-even point in unit sales? 10. What would have been the company’s variable costing net operating income (loss) if it had produced and sold 39,000 units? 11. What would have been the company’s absorption costing net operating income (loss) if it had produced and sold 39,000 units? 12. If the company produces 5,000 fewer units than it sells in its second year of operations, will absorption costing net operating income be higher or lower than variable costing net operating income in Year 2? Higher or Lower 13. Prepare a contribution format segmented income statement that includes a Total column and columns for the East and West regions. Income Statement Total Company East West 0 0 $0

And under variable costing this difference is not relevant as this cost ids not allocated to COGS , but the entire amount is reduced from the gross profit 13) Segmented Contribution Income Statement East Region West region Total Number of units sold 29000 10000 39000 Selling Price 73 73 Sales 2117000 730000 2847000 Less : Variable Cost per unit @ 45 ( refer point 8 above) 1305000 450000 1755000 Contribution 812000 280000 1092000 Less : Fixed Cost fIXED Manufacturing overhead - unallocated 748000 Fixed selling and administrative expense 130000 180000 310000 Fixed selling and administrative expense - unallocated 90000 Operating Income 682000 100000 -56000
