Respuesta :

Answer:

a:Total Variable Costs        $26    

a:Total Manufacturing Costs = $ 30  

b:Net Income Variable Costing  $100,000  

b: Net Income  Absorption Costing  $ 100,000

Explanation:

Smuckers Manufacturers

Costs per case under  Variable Costing

Direct materials per case 16

Direct labor per case 7

Variable manufacturing overhead per case 3

Total Variable Costs        $26        

Costs per case under  Absorption Costing

Direct materials (30,000*16)              480,000

Direct labor (30,000*7)                    210,000

Variable manufacturing overhead  (30,000*3)   90,000

Total Variable Costs                                                       780,000

Total fixed manufacturing overhead                           $120,000

Total Manufacturing Costs                                         $ 900,000

Total Manufacturing Costs per Case= $ 900,000/ 30,000= $ 30

The difference between the variable and absorption costing is that the product costs include variable and fixed costs in absorption costing. But in variable costing the product costs include only variable costs.

Variable Costing Income Statement

For the Third Quarter of 2017

Sales (30,000*34)                                                       1020,000  

Direct materials (30,000*16)              480,000

Direct labor (30,000*7)                    210,000

Variable manufacturing overhead  (30,000*3)   90,000

Total Variable Costs                                                       780,000

Contribution Margin                                                        240,000

Fixed Expenses                                                               140,000

Total fixed manufacturing overhead      $120,000

Fixed selling and administrative 20,000

Net Income                                                                   100,000

In this case the net income under both variable and absorption costing does not change because the units produced are units sold. No cost is charged to ending inventory under absorption costing.
