Explanation / Answer

Company's groos margin under absorption costing is $570,000 (on th basis of above calcualtions)

Company's operationg income under absorption costing is $34,000 (on th basis of above calcualtions)

(2) Marginal Costing

(8-1) BEP Sales in unit = Fixed Cost or period cost / Contributin per unit

= (774000+346000)/(72-44) = 1,120,000/28 = 40,000 units.

Sales units at BEP (40,000) is above the actual sales volume (38,000 units)
