2: (12 points) EgoTech Company is a traditional manufacturing company in Hong Kong. The company manufactures and sells a special electronic component that is crucial to many electronic devices. EgoTech had been using an absorption costing system. The plant has a maximum production capacity of 40 million units but produced and sold only 10 million units in Year 1. There was no beginning or ending inventory.

The board of directors agreed to these terms and the consultant was hired as EgoTech's new CEO on January 1, Year 2.
