PROBLEM 2-438
Solution:
1. Manufacturing overhead:
Indirect labor………………………………. $109,000
Building depreciation ($80,000 x 75%).. 60,000
Other factory costs……………………….. 344,000
Total……………………………………... $513,000
4. Net income:
Sales revenue…………………………………….. $1,495,000
Less: Cost of goods sold………………………. 926,400
Gross margin……………………………………... $ 568,600
Selling and administrative expenses:
Salaries………………………………………... $133,000
Building depreciation ($80,000 x 25%)…... 20,000
Other…………………………………………… 195,000 348,000
Income before taxes…………………………….. $ 220,600
Income tax expense ($220,600 x 30%)……….. 66,180
Net income………………………………………... $ 154,420
5. The company sold 11,500 units during the year ($1,495,000 ÷ $130). Since 160 of
the units came from finished-goods inventory (1,350 – 1,190), the company would
have manufactured 11,340 units (11,500 – 160).
PROBLEM 2-40
Solution:
3. (a) No change. Direct labor is a variable cost, and the cost per unit will remain
constant.
(b) No change. Despite the decrease in the number of units produced, this is a
fixed cost, which remains the same in total.
(c) No change. Selling and administrative costs move more closely with
changes in sales than with units produced. Additionally, this is a fixed cost.
(d) Increase. The average unit cost of production will change because of the
per-unit fixed manufacturing overhead. A reduced production volume will
be divided into the fixed dollar amount, which increases the cost per unit.
