Tami Tyler opened Tamis Creations, Inc., a small manufacturing company, at the beginning of the year. Getting the company through its first quarter of operations placed a considerable strain on Ms. Tylers personal finances. The following income statement for the first quarter was prepared by a friend who has just completed a course in managerial accounting at State University. Sales (25,000 units) $ 907,500 Variable expenses: Variable cost of goods sold $ 295,000 Variable selling and administrative 200,000 495,000 Contribution margin 412,500 Fixed expenses: Fixed manufacturing overhead 226,800 Fixed selling and administrative 216,000 442,800 Net operating loss $ ( 30,300) Ms. Tyler is discouraged over the loss shown for the quarter, particularly because she had planned to use the statement as support for a bank loan. Another friend, a CPA, insists that the company should be using absorption costing rather than variable costing and argues that if absorption costing had been used the company would probably have reported at least some profit for the quarter. At this point, Ms. Tyler is manufacturing only one product, a swimsuit. Production and cost data relating to the swimsuit for the first quarter follow: Units produced 28,000 Units sold 25,000 Variable costs per unit: Direct materials $ 7.50 Direct labor $ 2.70 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.60 Variable selling and administrative $ 8.00 Required: 1. Complete the following: a. Compute the unit product cost under absorption costing. (Round your intermediate and final answers to 2 decimal places.) b. Redo the companys income statement for the quarter using absorption costing. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.) Reconcile the variable and absorption costing net operating income (loss) figures. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
