Answer:
Fixed manufacturing costs expensed on the income statement (excluding adjustments for variances) total $ 12071.43
Explanation:
Freetown Corporation
Fixed manufacturing costs $26,000
Budgeted denominator level is 2,800 units
Units sold total 1,300
In absorption costing the fixed costs are treated as product costs.
So the Fixed overhead rate will be applied to the units sold
Fixed Overhead Rate= Fixed Costs/ Budgeted Units =
$ 26,000/ 2800= $ 9.285= $ 9.29
Fixed Costs for 1300 units = Fixed OH rate * 1300
=$ 9.29 * 1300= 12071.428= $ 12071.43
Fixed manufacturing costs expensed on the income statement (excluding adjustments for variances) total $ 12071.43
