Question: A company has a budget to produce 5,000 units of Product B in December. The budget for
December shows that, for Product B, the opening inventory will be 400 units and the
closing inventory will be 900 units. The monthly budgeted production cost data for Product
B for December is as follows:
Variable direct costs per unit $6.00
Variable production overhead costs per unit $3.50
Total fixed production overhead costs $29,500
The company absorbs overheads on the basis of the budgeted number of units produced.
The budgeted profit for Product B for December, using ABSORPTION COSTING, is:
A $2,950 lower than it would be using marginal costing
B $2,950 greater than it would be using marginal costing
C $4,700 lower than it would be using marginal costing
D $4,700 greater than it would be using marginal costing
Answer:The opening inventory was 400 units and the closing inventory was 900 units, therefore
inventory has increased.
If production is greater than sales then absorption costing will show the higher profit.
Difference in profit: = Change in inventory × Fixed production cost per unit
= (900 – 400) × $29,500/5,000 units = $2,950
Or
Absorption costing overhead rate= 29,500/500= 5.9 per unit
Absorption costing profit greater by 5.9*500=2950$
Question: K Plc had a marginal costing profit of $10,400 in the last period. Its inventories for the period were valued in
the following way:
- Opening inventory: $3,600
- Closing inventory: $4,900
If the business had uses absorption costing, the inventory values would have been as follow:
- Opening inventory: $5,800
- Closing inventory: $7,840
What would have been the reported profit using absorption costing? => 9660
Our inventory has increased:
Absorption Costing: Inventory increased by 2040
Marginal Costing: Inventory increased by $1300
Difference : 2040-1300=740
Absorption costing profit= 10400-740=9660
Question: HMF Co produce a single product. The budgeted fixed production overheads for the period are $500,000. The
budgeted output for the period is 2,500 units. Opening inventory at the start of the period consisted of 900 units and
closing inventory at the end of period consisted of 300 units. If absorption costing principle were applied, the profit for
the period compared to the marginal costing would be which of the following?
Price of each unit = $500,000/2,500= 200$
difference between absorption costing and marginal costing = $200*300- $200*900= -120,000$
=> Answer: $120,000 lower
Question: S Plc sells plastic furniture.Its popular product is kids chair. These are small chairs for children which has high
demand among playshools and day care centres. S Plc has budgeted to produce 7,500 kids chairs in November. The
budget for November shows that for the kids chairs, the opening inventory will be 600 units and the closing inventory
will be 1,100 units. The monthly budgeted production cost data for the chair for November is as follows:
Variable indirect costs per unit: $6.00
Variable production overhead cost per unit: $3.50
Total fixed production overhead cost: $ 44,250.
The company absorbs overheads on the basis of the budgeted number of units produced. From the options below, choose
the amount by which the budgeted profit for the kids chairs using absorption costing will vary as compared to the profit
computed using variable costing:
Price of each unit = 44,250/7500=5,9$
Difference between using absorption costing and compared to the using variable costing : 5,9* 1,110-5,9*600= $2,950
Question:A single-product company prepares income statements using both absorption and variable costing.
Manufacturing overhead cost applied per unit produced in Year 2 was the same as in Year 1. The Year 2 variable-costing
statement reported a profit, whereas the Year 2 absorption-costing statement reported a loss.A possible explanation for the
difference in reported income is that the units produced in Year 2 were:
The beginning inventory cost is an expense and the ending inventory is a contra-expense because it reduces the Cost of
Goods Sold.
This implies that when the inventory level decreases (because the unit produced were fewer than the units sold), the Cost
of Goods Sold expense would be greater under absorption costing than under variable costing because the beginning
inventory amount is higher.
This will cause the profit under absorption costing to be lower than the profit under variable costing.
Options b and c are wrong because the activity level used to allocate overhead is the same for absorption and variable
costing, so it would not make a difference.
Question: T Ltd uses a standard labour hour rate to charge its overheads to its clients' work. During the last annual
reporting period production overheads were under- absorbed by £19,250. The anticipated standard labour hours for the
period were 20,000 hours while the standard
hours actually charged to clients were 23,100 . The actual production overheads incurred in the period were £481,250.
The budgeted production overhead for the period were:
Question: From the options below, select the effect of a decrease in the level of stock during a period on absorption
costing profit and closing stock valuation assuming the overhead absorption rate remains unchanged
Answer:Absorption costing profits will be lower and closing stock valuation higher than undervariable costing.
Question: From the option below, select the one scenario in which the overheads will always be over-absorbed
A actual output is higher than budgeted output
B actual overheads incurred are higher than the amount absorbed
C actual overheads incurred are lower than the amount absorbed
D budgeted overheads are lower than the overheads absorbed
Explanation: Option A may lead to over‐absorption but this will depend on the extent to which actual
overhead costs differ from budget. Option B describes under ‐absorption. Option D refers to
budgeted overheads, which are used to calculate the OAR but otherwise not used in the
calculation of under‐/over‐absorption.
Question: Bass Ltd., which has only one product, has provided the following data concerning its most recent month of
operations:
Selling price $ 115
Units in beginning inventory 0
Units produced 6,600
Units sold 6,400
Units in ending inventory 200
Direct materials $ 26
Direct labor $ 46
Variable manufacturing overhead $ 7
Variable selling and administrative expense $ 9
Fixed costs:
What is the unit product cost for the month under absorption costing?
a. $79 per unit b. $95 per unit c. $104 per unit d. $88 per unit
Question:Stead Company produces a single product. Last year, the company's net operating income computed by the
absorption costing method was $6,400, and its net operating income computed by the variable costing method was
$9,100. The company's unit product cost was $17 under variable costing and $20 under absorption costing. If the ending
inventory consisted of 2,100 units, the beginning inventory in units must have been
A) 1,200 B) 2,100 C) 3,000 D) 4,800
Answer is option "d" 4800 units
Difference in net income = $14500-$6400 =$8100.
Difference in unit cost is $20-$17= $3 per unit i.e. difference in opening and closing units =$8100/$3 = 2700 units
If closing unit is 2100 units then opening units is 2700+2100 units = 4800 units because net operating income under
absorption costing is less then so opening units is more then closing so 4800 units was opening unit
Question: From the options below, select the advantages of marginal costing
a. Marginal costing is useful for internal decision making.
b. Marginal costing ensures that overheads are shared across production
c. Marginal costing is suitable for statutory accounting purposes
d. Marginal costing is not distorted by arbitrary allocation of overheads
Question: The absorption costing profit is $82,750. Opening inventory is 4,500 units and closing inventory is 3,700 units.
Fixed overheads are absorbed at $4 per unit. What would be the reported profit using marginal costing
Difference in profit = change in inventory levels= 4500-3700=800
Marginal costing profit = 82,750 - 800*4= 79,550$
Question: A company has established a marginal costing profit of $72,300. Opening inventory was 300 units and closing
inventory is 750 units. The fixed production overhead absorption rate has been calculated as $5/unit. What was the profit
under absorption costing?
Question: A company uses standard absorption costing to value inventory. Its fixed OAR is $12 per labour hr & each unit
of production should take 4 hrs. In a recent period where there was no opening inventory of finished goods, 20,000 units
were produced using 100,000 labour hrs, 18,000 units were sold. The actual profit was $ 464,000.
What profit would have been earned under a standard marginal costing system?
The only difference between the absorption and marginal profits is the change in the inventory multiplied by the fixed
overheads per unit.
In this question, the produced 20,000 units and sold 18,000 units. So the inventory increased by 2,000 units.
The fixed overheads per unit at 4 x $12 = $48.
So the profit will be different by 2,000 x $48 = $96,000.
If inventories increase then absorption gives the higher profit (and so marginal gives a lower profit – 96,000 lower)
=$ 464,000 -96,000= $368,000
13. Variable costing is more compatible with cost-volume-profit analysis than is absorption costing. Answer: True
Question: Light It Up manufactures lights and based on the advice of the management accountant had changed from
absorption costing to variable costing for internal reporting purposes.Manufacturing levels and sales have been very
consistent over recent periods, however, the production manager has noticed a change in profits in the internal reports.
Here is some data for this period for Light It Up.
- Opening inventory: 600
- Unit produced: 5,000
- Unit sold: 5,500
Light It Up had previously used an predetermined rate of $7 to assign overheads.
The profit reported in this period’s internal reports was $10,000. What would the profits have been if Light It Up had not
switched to variable costing?
=> 17,700
Question: The following are the cost details for a toy soldier made by Play Today
Direct Material ( Per unit): $3
Direct labour (Per unit): $1
Direct expenses ( Per unit): $2
Variable production overheads ( Per unit): $1
Variable selling & administration costs ( Per unit): $1
Fixed overhead absorption rate: $2
The closing inventory is 100 units. What is the value of closing inventory under variable costing?
Answer: The cost of the ending inventory shall be the ending inventory in units multiplied by the unit cost
Unit cost under variable costing = DM+DL+DE+ VPO+VSA= 3+1+2+1+1= 8$
Cost of the ending inventory = 8 *100 =800$

Question: Super Fast manufactures toy sport cars. Sales this year have been significantly below target due to a new
competitor in the market. The management team receives a bonus if target profit are achieved. Super Fast uses absorption
costing and a significant proportion of cost are fixed overhead. Deposit poor revenue, the profit targets for the year were
achieved and management received their bonus. Which of the following is a possible explanation?
a. Production levels were increased, resulting in a build up of inventory
b. Management reduced production levels to match demand, resulting in a reduction in total variable production
costs

d. Management reduced their selling price for the second half of the year, resulting in improved sales for the
second half of the year
During the month, Fisher Corporation's Work in Process inventory account was credited for $120,500, which represented
the Cost of Goods Manufactured for the month. Only one job remained in process on May 31; this job had been charged
with $9,600 of applied overhead cost. The amount of direct materials cost in the unfinished job would be:
MOH applied based on DL cost.
Applied = rate x DL.
=>Rate = Applied/DL = 37.500/50,000= 75%
Applied overhead was 9,600 = 75% x DL in job.
=>DL in job = 9600/.75 = 12,800
Beg wip 26,000 + DM 40,000 + DL 50,000 + MOH 37,500 – COGM 120,500 = End WIP
=>End WIP = 33,000= end DM + end DL 12,800 + end MOH 9,600
End DM = 33,000 – 12,800 – 9,600 = 10,600
Question:Braaten Corporation uses direct labor-hours in its predetermined overhead rate. At the beginning of the year,
the estimated direct labor-hours were 14,100 hours. At the end of the year, actual direct labor-hours for the year were
13,500 hours, the actual manufacturing overhead for the year was $291,100, and manufacturing overhead for the year was
underapplied by $7,600. The estimated manufacturing overhead at the beginning of the year used in the predetermined
overhead rate must have been:
A) $286,100 B) $296,100 C) $298,816 D) $283,500
Question:In the Vasquez Corporation, any overapplied or underapplied manufacturing overhead is closed out to Cost of
Goods Sold. Last year, the Corporation incurred $27,000 in actual manufacturing overhead cost, and applied $29,000 of
manufacturing overhead cost to jobs. The beginning and ending balances of Finished Goods were equal, and the
Corporation's Cost of Goods Manufactured for the year totaled $71,000. Given this information, Cost of Goods Sold, after
adjustment for any overapplied or underapplied manufacturing overhead, for the year must have been:
a. 98,000 b. 73,000 c. 71,000 d. 69,000
=> 2000 overapplied. 71,000-2000= 69000
Question:4Es Corporation uses a job-order costing system and applies overhead to jobs using a predetermined overhead
rate. During the year the company's Finished Goods inventory account was debited for $384,000 and credited for
$325,900. The ending balance in the Finished Goods inventory account was $72,100. At the end of the year,
manufacturing overhead was underapplied by $5,400.
The balance in the Finished Goods inventory account at the beginning of the year was: $ 14000
Beginning finished goods inventory balance = $ 72,100 + $ 325,900 - $ 384,000 = $ 14,000
If the applied manufacturing overhead was $174,000, the actual manufacturing overhead cost for the year was:$ 179,400 (
174,000+ 5,400= 179,400)
Question: On April 9 of the current year, Job XX4 was completed. The job cost sheet showed a total of $4,000 in direct
materials and $6,000 in direct labor at a rate of $20 per direct labor hour. Plantwide overhead is applied at $30 per direct
labor hour. The debit to Finished Goods Inventory to record the completion of Job XX4 is
A) $19,000. B) $9,000. C) $4,000. D) $13,000
direct materials = $4,000
direct labor = $6,000
direct labor hour = $20
over head applied = $30 per direct labor hour
amount to be debited to finish good inventory = direct materials + direct labor + over head
amount to be debited to finish good inventory = $4,000 + $6,000 +$9,000=$19000
correct option is A) $19,000

Question:The 4Es Ltd. estimates its expenses for the coming year as follows:
Sales commission: $150,000;
Direct labor costs: $110,000;
Question: 4Es Corporation uses direct labour- hours in its predetermined overhead rate. At the beginning of the year, the
total estimated manufacturing overhead was 221,100. At the end of the year, actual direct labor-hours for the year were
14,400 hours, manufacturing overhead for the year was underapplied by $21,500, and the actual manufacturing overhead
was $216,100. The predetermined overhead rate for the year must have been closest to:
Underapplied (overapplied) manufacturing overhead = Actual manufacturing overhead −
Manufacturing overhead applied
Manufacturing overhead applied = Actual manufacturing overhead − Underapplied
manufacturing overhead = $216,100 − $21,500= $194,600
Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated total manufacturing overhead ÷ Estimated total amount of the
allocation base = $194600 ÷ 14400 direct labor-hours = $13.51 per direct labor-hour
Question: Dagger Corporation uses direct labor-hours in its predetermined overhead rate. At the beginning of the year,
the total estimated manufacturing overhead was $248,800. At the end of the year, actual direct labor-hours for the year
were 16,800 hours, manufacturing overhead for the year was underapplied by $17,000, and the actual manufacturing
overhead was $243,800. The predetermined overhead rate for the year must have been closest to:
a.$13.50 b.$14.16 c.$12.63 d.$14.44
Underapplied (overapplied) manufacturing overhead = Actual manufacturing overhead −
Manufacturing overhead applied
Manufacturing overhead applied = Actual manufacturing overhead − Underapplied
manufacturing overhead = $243,800 − $17,000= $226,800
Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated total manufacturing overhead ÷ Estimated total amount of the
allocation base = $226,800 ÷ 16,800 direct labor-hours = $13.50 per direct labor-hour

Question: Walter Company uses a job-order costing system to account for product costs. The following Information
pertains to 2007:
Materials placed into production: £140,000
indirect labor: 40,000
direct labor (10,000 hours): 160,000
Depreciation of factory building: 60,000
Other factory overhead: 100,000
Increase in work-in-progress inventory: 30,000
a.What is the total amount credited to Materials (Stores ledger account) for Walter in 2007?
=> 140,000
b. What is the total amount debited to Finished Goods Inventory in the current year?
The amount debited will be equal to the COGM which is the cost of goods manufactured.
COGM = begining WIP + cost added - ending WIP
we need to know the cost added during the period:
cost added during the period
materials 140,000
direct labor 160,000
overhead applied 18 x 10,000 = 180,000
total 480,000
Notice, for the overhead we multiply the predetermined rate by the amount of labor hours.
The actual values and adjustment for application of overhead are calculate later at year-end
Now, we are given the following information:
we know that WIP increase by 30,000
so : ending is 30,000 dollars greater than beginning
which implies ending - beginning = -30,000
we plug that into the formula:
COGM = cost added + (beginning WIP - ending WIP)
COGM = 480,000 - 30,000 = 450,000
c.Which entry is recorded to account for direct labour cost?
=>Dr Work in Process Cr Wages Payable
Question: Er Inc. has provided the following data for the month of March. The balance in the Finished Goods inventory
account at the beginning of the month was $43,000 and at the end of the month was $42,000. The cost of goods sold
manufactured for the month was $221,000. The actual manufacturing overhead cost incurred was $45,000 and the
manufacturing overhead cost applied to WIP was $49,000. The adjusted cost of goods sold that would appear on the
income statement for March is:
a. 222,000$ b. 226,000$ c.222,000$ d.221,000$ e. All are incorrect
Unadjusted cost of goods sold = Opening finished goods inventory + Cost of goods manufactured - Closing finished
goods inventory=43,000 + 221,000 - 42,000=$222,000
Amount to be adjusted to cost of goods sold = Applied manufacturing overhead - Actual manufacturing overhead=
49,000 - 45,000=$4,000
Adjusted cost of goods sold = Unadjusted cost of goods sold - Amount to be adjusted to cost of goods sold=222,000 -
4,000 = $218,000
Option E is correct.
Question: Whether a company uses process costing or job-order costing depends on its industry. Several
companies in different industries are listed below.
Question: Sagon Corporation has provided data concerning the Corporation's Manufacturing Overhead account for the
month of September. Prior to the closing of the overapplied or underapplied balance to Cost of Goods Sold, the total of
the debits to the Manufacturing Overhead account was $76,000 and the total of the credits to the account was $66,000.
Which of the following statements is true?
a. Manufacturing overhead transferred from Finished Goods to Cost of Goods Sold during the month was $76,000.
b. Actual manufacturing overhead incurred during the month was $66,000.
c. Manufacturing overhead applied to Work in Process for the month was $76,000.
d. Manufacturing overhead for the month was underapplied by $10,000.
=>The total of the debits to the manufacturing overhead account was $76,000 and the total of the credits to the account
was $66,000.
This implies that the manufacturing overhead for the month was underapplied by ($76000 - $66000)= $10000. The
manufacturing overhead debit balance shows that manufacturing overhead was simply underapplied in this case.
-The assignment of direct labour costs to individual jobs is based on the estimated time spent on each job multiplied by
the wage rate.=> True
-In a job- order cost system, salaries for factory supervisor should be charged directly to the work Work in process

WEEK8:CHAPTER
4: Cost-Volume-Profit Relationships
Question: T Inc. has invested $60,000 in new machinery for a new product.They area publicly traded company and they
have a cost of capital of 12%.The product they plan to make is a handheld mini welder and would be an innovative
product in the market.Market research has shown that there is a demand for such a product,since there is a gap as a result
of unfulfilled consumer needs.As such,the market research team believes they will be able to price these mini welders at
an RRP of $80 per unit.Production is due to begin next week,and the production manager feels that as it is a completely
new product,production may be slow to begin with.The Company thinks that the variable cost per unit will be around $50.
Given the information above,TInc. must produce and sell……2000….units in order to breakeven.
The break even point is calculated by the fixed cost by the contribution per unit ( the selling price - the variable cost)
Break even point = FC/ ( selling price - VC)
FC= 60,000; P = 80$; VC = $50
Break even point = 60,000/( 80-50)= 2,000 units
Question: B plc sells units of production for £100, incurring a variable cost per unit of £37.50 and total fixed cost of
£750,000. If the variable cost was to rise by 40% and the fixed overhead reduced by £100,000, what would be the change
in the number of break even units sold (to the nearest unit)?
Existing: £750,000/(£100-£37.50)=12,000
Revised:£650,000/(£100-£52.50)=13,684
Change In Breakeven Units Sold=1,684
=>Breakeven Units Would Rise By 1,684 unit
Question: If both the selling price and variable cost per unit of a product rise by 17%, the breakeven point would
DECREASE
Question: HG plc manufactures four products. The unit cost, selling price and bottle neck resource detail as per unit as
follow Assuming that labour is a unit variable cost,if budgeted unit sales are in the ratio W:2,X:3,Y:3, Z:4 and monthly
fixed costs are budgeted to be £15,000, the number of units of W. What would be sold at the budgeted breakeven point is
nearest to:
A.106 units B.142 units C. 212 units D.283 units
Cách giải:
Contribution per mix = (2 × $7) + (3 × $1) + (3 × $15) + (4 × $11) = $106
∴ Breakeven point in number of mixes = $15,000/$106 = 141.5
∴ Number of W sold at breakeven point = 2 × 141.5 = 283 units
If you chose 142 you took the breakeven number of mixes but did not multiply by 2 to get the number of units of W as
there are 2 units of W in each mix.
If you chose 106 units then this is the contribution per mix. You did not go on then to calculate the BE point or number of
units of W.
If you chose 212 you simply multiplied the contribution per mix by 2 and missed out the intermediate stage of calculating
the breakeven point.
Question: Last year, variable expenses were 60% of total sales and fixed expenses were 10% of total sales. If the
company increases its selling prices by 10%, but if fixed expenses, variable costs per unit, and unit sales remain
unchanged, the effect of the increase in selling price on the company's total contribution margin would be:
=> An increase of 25%
Contribution Margin: $4
Variable Cost: 6
If the company use any selling price (orignal) will increase the CM by 25%.
Question: Pendant Company’s break-even point in sales is $690,000 and its variable

Question: Sarri Plc produces and sells three products,X,Y and Z. It has contracts to supplyproductsXandY,which will
utilize all of the specific materials that are available to make these two products during the next period.The revenue these
contracts will generate and the contribution to sales(C/M)ratios of products X and Y are as follows:
Revenue C/M ratio
Product X £10 million 15%
Product Y £20 million 10%
Product Z has a C/M ratio of 25%.The total fixed costs of Sarri Plc are £5.5 million during the next period and
management has budgeted to earn a profit of £1 million.Calculate the revenue that needs to be generated by Product Z for
Saree Plc to achieve the budgeted profit: £3 million.
You are not given volume, but you do not need it.
First solve for the hurdle / target: $5,500,000 + 1,000,000 = 6,500,000
Next, determine the portion already covered by product x and product y.
Product X Contribution Margin = 10,000,000 x 15% = 1,500,000
Product Y Contribution Margin = 20,000,000 x 10% = 2,000,000
Fixed Costs and Profit Left to Cover = 6,500,000 – 1,500,000 – 2,000,000 = 3,000,000
Product Z Contribution Margin = 25% of Revenues
Question 16: The cost structures of the company A and the company B as follows:

b. Company A’s profits are less sensitive to percentage changes in sales, otherwise Company B is opposite trend
c Company A is higher risky in bussiness than Company B
d. Company A’s margin of safety and break-even points are all higher than Company B
Explanation:
VC > => more profit because VC change when quantity of products increase => nếu sản xuất nhiều thì investor sẽ thấy
cty mình tiềm năng vì có nhiều đơn đặt hàng, còn Fixed cost thì dù quantity có tăng hay giảm thì vẫn phải trả 1 lượng tiền
như vậy nên nếu muốn xem xét 1 cty nên đầu tư hay ko thì nên focus vào VC của cty đó có cao hay ko (này là tui nhớ bữa
thầy nói z chứ tìm gg ko thấy)
Question 20: R Plc manufactures three products, which have the following data:
Product X Product Y Product Z
The lowest breakeven sales value, subject to meeting the above sales value constraints is nearest to
B £1,356,700 E £1,366,700
C £1,556,800
Cách giải:
The minimum sales value must be satisfied first
Sales Contribution
Product X 100 x 0.3 30
Product Y 200 x 0.25 50
Product Z 300 x 0.4 120 200
To breakeven the fixed cost of £450,000 needs to be met. £200,000 contribution has already been met using the minimum
sales values, therefore an additional £250,000 contribution still needs to be raised. The most profitable sales in order to
minimise sales would be to produce the products with the highest C/S ratios. In order Z, X, Y.
