a) Classify each cost element as either fixed, variable, or mixed b) Calculate: (i) the variable production cost per unit and the total fixed production overhead. (ii) The total variable cost per unit and the total fixed costs Hint: Use the high-low method to separate mixed costs into their fixed and variable components. c) Assuming sales of 5,000 units, prepare a contribution margin income statement for the year ended December 31, 2020, detailing the components of total variable costs and total fixed costs, and clearly showing contribution and net income.
The company makes a product with the following costs: Direct materials→₱17.00; Direct labor→₱22.00; Variable manufacturing overhead→₱4.00; Fixed manufacturing overhead→₱504,000.00; Variable selling, general and administrative expenses→₱4.90; Fixed selling, general and administrative expenses→₱319,200. The company uses the absorption costing approach to cost-plus pricing. The pricing calculations are based on budgeted production and sales of 30,000 units per year. The company has invested ₱360,000 in this product and expects a return on investment of 15%. Tax rate is 25%. The markup on absorption cost would be closest to: a. 41.72% b. 15.00% c. 30% d. 43% e. 37.45% f. 45.30%

Cena Inc. has decided to use the high-low method to estimate the total cost and the fixed and variable cost components of the total cost. The data for various levels of production are as follows:Units Produced Total Costs80,000 $25,200,00099,000 25,220,000130,000 31,770,000a. Determine the variable cost per unit and the total fixed cost. b. Based on part (A), estimate the total cost for 115,000 units of production.
Kimball Company has developed the following cost formulas: Material usage: Ym = $80X; r = 0.95 Labor usage (direct): Yl = $21X; r = 0.96 Overhead activity: Yo = $358,000 + $100X; r = 0.72 Selling activity: Ys = $46,000 + $14X; r = 0.93 where X = Direct labor hours The company has a policy of producing on demand and keeps very little, if any, finished goods inventory (thus, units produced equals units sold). Each unit uses one direct labor hour for production. The president of Kimball Company has recently implemented a policy that any special orders will be accepted if they cover the costs that the orders cause. This policy was implemented because Kimball's industry is in a recession and the company is producing well below capacity (and expects to continue doing so for the coming year). The president is willing to accept orders that minimally cover their variable costs so that the company can keep its employees and avoid layoffs. Also, any orders above variable costs will increase…
Jenny Company's direct material costs are as follows: Standard unit price - $3.60 Actual quantity purchased 1,600 Standard quantity allowed for actual production 1,450 Materials purchase price variance - favorable $240 Compute the actual purchase price per unit.

Which of the following would be included in the cost of a product manufactured according to variable costing? a.sales commissions b.direct materials c.interest expense d.office supply costs Another name for variable costing is: a.indirect costing b.process costing c.direct costing d.differential costing If variable manufacturing costs are $15 per unit and total fixed manufacturing costs are $200,000, what is the manufacturing cost per unit if a. 20,000 units are manufactured and the company uses the variable costing concept?
Cicleta Manufacturing has four activities: receiving materials, assembly, expediting products, and storing goods. Receiving and assembly are necessary activities; expediting and storing goods are unnecessary. The following data pertain to the four activities for the year ending 20x1 (actual price per unit of the activity driver is assumed to be equal to the standard price): Required: 1. Prepare a cost report for the year ending 20x1 that shows value-added costs, non-value-added costs, and total costs for each activity. 2. Explain why expediting products and storing goods are non-value-added activities. 3. What if receiving cost is a step-fixed cost with each step being 1,500 orders whereas assembly cost is a variable cost? What is the implication for reducing the cost of waste for each activity?
At the beginning of the year, Lopez Company had the following standard cost sheet for one of its chemical products: Lopez computes its overhead rates using practical volume, which is 80,000 units. The actual results for the year are as follows: (a) Units produced: 79,600; (b) Direct labor: 158,900 hours at 18.10; (c) FOH: 831,000; and (d) VOH: 112,400. Required: 1. Compute the variable overhead spending and efficiency variances. 2. Compute the fixed overhead spending and volume variances.
