Explanation / Answer

Sales = 1,726,200$

Variable Expenses:

Variable cost of goods sold = 5 * 42000 = 210,000$

Variable selling and administation = total - fixed selling and adm = 525,000 - 315,000 = 210,000$

Contribution Loss

Fixed Expenses:

Fixed manufacturing overhead = 5 * 42000 = 210,000$

Fixed selling anda dministrative = 315,000$

Variable costing net operating income = sales - variable cost = 1,726,200 - (26-5)*42000 = 1,726,200 -882,000 = 834,200$.

Absorption costing net operating income = sales - absorption cost = 1,726,200 - 26*42000 = 1,726,200-1,092,000= 634,200$
