There are two requirements for this question
i Requirements X 1. Prepare income statements for 20X1 under variable costing and under absorption costing- 2. Explain why operating income was different under variable costing and absorption costing. Show your calculations. Print DoneThe Desk PC Division has prepared comparative income statements using the variable-costing and absorption-costing methods. Suppose that in 20X1 production was 16,200 computers instead of 14,600 computers, and sales were 15,400 computers. Also assume that the net variances for (Click the icon to view the comparative variable costing income statement.) all variable manufacturing costs were $19,000, unfavorable. Also assume that actual fixed manufacturing costs were $1,292,000. (Click the icon to view the comparative absorption costing income statement.)
