Tami Tyler opened Tamis Creations, Incorporated, 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.

Tamis Creations, Incorporated Income Statement For the Quarter Ended March 31
Sales (28,700 units)		$ 1,148,000
Variable expenses:
Variable cost of goods sold	$ 453,460
Variable selling and administrative	200,900	654,360
Contribution margin		493,640
Fixed expenses:
Fixed manufacturing overhead	253,600
Fixed selling and administrative	252,040	505,640
Net operating loss		$ ( 12,000)

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 probably would have reported at least some profit for the quarter.

At this point, Ms. Tyler is manufacturing only one producta swimsuit. Production and cost data relating to the swimsuit for the first quarter follow:

Units produced	31,700
Units sold	28,700
