Direct materials                                         25

Direct labor                                                15

Factory overhead

Selling price per unit is $ 250 per unit

Beginning inventory is 1000 units

General and Administrative fixed cost is $ 200,000

Variable standard for selling expense is $ 5.00 per unit

In addition, show your reconciliations of the net incomes.

Manufacturing Expenses per unit

Direct Expenses 25

Direct Labour 15

variable over head 9

Fixed over head (50000/12000) 4.17

Total 25+15+9+4.17 = 53.17

Absorption Costing Sales 2250000 Opening inventory 1000*53.17 53170 Add. Cost of goods produced 12000*53.17 638000 less Closing Invetory 4000*53.17 212680 478490 Gross Profit 1771510 less General administrative variable 9000*5 45000 Fixed General administration 200000 245000 Net profit 1526510
