Variable vs Absorption Costing 2a. Compute the product cost per unit produced under absorption costing and under variable costing.
Nerdzy Computer company has been operating for a couple of years now and decided to do away with its desktop computer production. It now only sells laptops.
Absorption Costing Variable Costing
Recent company data reveals that under the current sales mix, the weighted average sales price per unit is 373 and the weighted-average variable cost per unit is 62. Variable Manufacturing cost 62 62
Fixed MOH 78
Total unit product cost $ 140.00 $ 62.00
The company does not expect the sales mix to vary for the next year. Assume the beginning balance in finished goods inventory is $0. Additional data for the first month of the year show:

2c. Is operating income higher under absorption costing or variable costing in January? What causes the difference?
Net Sales Revenue $ 382,325
Variable Costs 75,850
Contribution Margin 306,475
Fixed Costs 156,000
Operating Income $ 150,475
2c. Is operating income higher under absorption costing or variable costing in January? What causes the difference?
Operating income is higher under absorption costing for January. The difference in operating income under absorption versus variable costing is due to the difference in unit product cost and when that difference is expensed. Under variable costing, fixed manufacturing overhead costs are expensed as period costs. Under absorption costing, fixed manufacturing overhead costs are part of the unit cost of the product and are only expensed when the product is sold. Fixed manufacturing cost per unit $93.60 (from Requirement 1) × 55 units in ending inventory (1,000 produced – 945 units sold) = $5,148. This is the same difference between the operating incomes ($109,023 – $103,875).

Comprehensive Problem Chapters 16-20 Req C1. Complete a production cost report for the Cutting Department and the Sewing Department. What is the cost of one basic shirt?
The Tattered Threads Shirt Company makes two types of T-shirts: basic and custom. Basic shirts are plain shirts without any screen printing on them. Custom shirts are created using the basic shirts and then adding a custom screen-printing design.
The company buys cloth in various colors and then makes the basic shirts in two departments, Cutting and Sewing. The company uses a process costing system (weighted-average method) to determine the production cost of the basic shirts. In the Cutting Department, direct materials (cloth) are added at the beginning of the process and conversion costs are added evenly through the process. In the Sewing Department, no direct materials are added. The only additional material, thread, is considered an indirect material because it cannot be easily traced to the finished product. Conversion costs are added evenly throughout the process in the Sewing Department. The finished basic shirts are sold to retail stores or are sent to the Custom Design Department for custom screen printing.
The Custom Design Department creates custom shirts by adding screen printing to the basic shirt. The department creates a design based on the customer’s request and then prints the design using up to four colors. Because these shirts have the custom printing added, which is unique for each order, the additional cost incurred is determined using job order costing, with each custom order considered a separate job.
