Respuesta :

Answer:

A. its operating income for the period will be higher than under absorption costing

Explanation:

As we know that

Under absorption costing, the fixed cost is divided on the number of units produced

And under the variable costing, the fixed cost is considered as a cost selling of goods so the absorption costing method will be lower than the value of finished goods.

As per the question, the started finished goods will help and sell the whole production and starting balance that means under absorption costing of goods which is to be sold is much than variable costing.
