During its first year of operations, Snobegon, Inc. (located in Lake Snobegon, Minnesota), produced 40,400 plastic snow scoops. Snow scoops are oversized shovel-type scoops that are used to push snow away. Unit sales were 38,900 scoops. Fixed overhead was applied at $0.75 per unit produced. Fixed overhead was underapplied by $2,800. This fixed overhead variance was closed to Cost of Goods Sold. There was no variable overhead variance. The results of the year's operations are as follows (on an absorption-costing basis): Sales (38,900 units @ $20) $778,000 Less: Cost of goods sold 547,560 Gross margin $230,440 Less: Selling and administrative expenses (all fixed) 185,500 Operating income $ 44,940 Required: 1. Calculate the cost of the firm's ending inventory under absorption costing. Round unit cost to five decimal places. Round your final answer to the nearest dollar. $______ What is the cost of the ending inventory under variable costing? Round unit…
