Answer 146
(a)20,000 units are manufactured and the company uses the variable costing
concept?
Manufacturing cost per unit under variable costing concept = $ 15(only the
variable manufacturing cost per unit)
(b)25,000 units are manufactured and the company uses the variable costing
concept?
Manufacturing cost per unit under variable costing concept = $ 15(only the
variable manufacturing cost per unit)
(c)20,000 units are manufactured and the company uses the absorption
costing concept?
$ 25. Variable cost per unit $ 15 add fixed cost per unit $ 10. Fixed Cost per
unit = $ 200,000/20,000 units = $ 10
(d)25,000 units are manufactured and the company used the absorption
costing concept?
$ 23. Variable cost per unit $ 15 add fixed cost per unit $ 8. Fixed Cost per unit
= $ 200,000/25,000 units = $ 10

Answer 147
Unit cost of goods manufactured

a-variable costing concept


Variable cost of goods sold $ 216,000
divide by number of units produced 18,000
Unit cost $ 12

b-absorption costing concept


Variable cost of goods sold $ 216,000
add: fixed manufactured costs $ 12,000
Total manufacturing costs $ 228,000
divide by number of units produced 18,000
Unit cost $ 12.67

the absorptioncosting concept.

ure Product Wrequires three times the number of machine hours required for Product T. Market research indicates that 1,000additio

Answer 148
Additional contribution margin from production of 1,000 additional units of
Product T= 1,000 units * $ 65 per unit = $ 65,000
Contribution margin of Product T lost due to production of 1,000 additional
units of Product W = 1,000 units * 3 units per machine hour * $ 40 = $ 120,000
Net Decrease in Contribution Margin = $ 120,000 less $ 65,000 = $ 55,000

65000
120000
55000
rch indicates that 1,000additional units of Product W could be sold. The contribution margin by unit of product is as follows:
