Variable Costing, Absorption Costing During its first year of operations, Snobegon, Inc. (located in Lake Snobegon, Minnesota), produced 40,200 plastic snow scoops. Snow scoops are oversized shovel-type scoops that are used to push snow away. Unit sales were 38,500 scoops. Fixed overhead was applied at $0.75 per unit produced. Fixed overhead was underapplied by $2,600. This fixed overhead variance was closed to Cost of Goods Sold. There was no variable overhead variance. The results of the year's operations are as follows (on an absorption-costing basis): Required: 1. Calculate the cost of the firm's ending inventory under absorption costing. Round unit cost to five decimal places. Round your final answer to the nearest dollar. Feedback Towen vi wion Determine the number of units in ending inventory first. Calculate unit cost after determining unadjusted COGS (before adjustment for underapplied fixed overhead). What is the cost of the ending inventory under variable costing? Round unit cost to five decimal places. Round your final answer to the nearest dollar. \& Feedback Cheik won Take unit cost under absorption less fixed overhead amount per unit to get variable cost per unit for variable costing. 2. Prepare a variable-costing income statement. Round the unit cost to five decimal places, when required. Round your final answers to the nearest dollar. Use the rounded values in subsequent computations.
