Amanufacturer reports the following costs to produce 28,000 units in its first year of operations: direct materials, $28 per unit, direct labor, $24 per unit, variable overhead, $280,000, and fixed overhead, $364,000. of the 28,000 units produced, 27,000 were sold, and 1,000 remain in inventory at year-end. under absorption costing, the value of the inventory is:

$75

Explanation:

In absorption costing, the cost of every unit produced is worked out by adding up the direct cost of materials, direct labor, variable overhead, and the fixed overhead. Unlike in the case of marginal costing where the fixed cost is treated as period cost, in absorption costing, fixed cost is treated as a product cost.

              The cost per unit

                                          $

Direct material                  28

Direct labor                       24

Variable overhead            10

Fixed cost                          13

Cost per unit                     75

Cost of Inventory

Number of units   = 1000

Cost per unit    = $75

Value = 1000 * $75 = $75,000

Workings:

Variable overhead per unit =            

Fixed cost per unit =

1   all nations face the problem of scarcity because there are limited resources and unlimited wants. nations do not have enough factors of production to produce everything that their population wants. entrepreneurial resources initiate businesses to make new goods and services; labor resources produce goods and services.

2 there are four factors of production: natural resources, labor resources, capital resources, and entrepreneurial resources. natural resources are raw materials from nature that are used to produce goods. trees, water, and grains are natural resources. some natural resources, such as wheat and cattle, are renewable
