Explanation / Answer

1a.Under super variable costing only direct material cost per unit is included in computing the unit product cost

so the unit product cost is $23 per unit

1b.income statement:

2a.)unit product cost under variable costing=$23 (direct material cost) + $ 12.50 (direct labor cost)=$35.50 per unit

b.)

3a.)unit product cost under absorption costing: $23 (direct material) +$12.50 (direct labor) +$15.40(fixed manufactuing overheads)=$50.90 per unit

b)

4a)reconciliation between super variable and variable costing net operating income

DIRECT LABOR COST PER UNIT =$275,000/22,000UNITS=$12.5 PER UNIT

4a)reconciliation between super variable and ABSORPTION costing net operating income

DIRECT LABOR AND FIXED MANUFACTURING COST PER UNIT =($275,000+$338,800)/22,000UNITS=$27.90 PER UNIT

super variable costing Income statement Sales(20,700 x $ 56) $1,159,200 less:variable cost of goods sold(20,700 x $23) $476,100 contribution margin: $683,100 less:Fixed epenses: labor cost $275,000 fixed manufacturing overheads $338,800 fixed selling and administration expenses $56,000 NET OPERATING INCOME $13,300
