Assume the company uses absorption costing. Determine its product cost per unit.

Cool Sky

The product cost per unit under absorption costing is:

= $7.20

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

First year production units = 40,000

First year sales units = 32,000

Ending inventory = 8,000 (40,000 - 32,000)

Selling price per unit = $110

Sales revenue = $3,520,000 (32,000 * $110)

Manufacturing costs

Direct materials per unit $ 42

Direct labor per unit $ 16

Variable overhead per unit $ 5

Fixed overhead for the year $ 360,000

Selling and administrative costs:

Variable selling and administrative cost per unit $ 10

Fixed selling and administrative cost per year $ 115,000

Production Cost per Unit under Absorption Costing:

Manufacturing costs:            Unit      Total

Direct materials per unit      $ 42

Direct labor per unit             $ 16

Variable overhead per unit   $ 5

Total variable cost per  unit $63  $2,520,000

Fixed overhead for the year           $ 360,000

Total production cost for 40,000 $2,880,000

Unit product cost = $7.20 ($2,880,000/40,000)
