$68,600

Explanation:

Bellue Inc.

Manufacturing overhead deferred in (released from) inventory = Fixed manufacturing overhead in ending inventory − Fixed manufacturing overhead in beginning inventory

= ($4 per unit × Units in ending inventory) − ($4per unit × Units in beginning inventory)

= $4 per unit × (Units in ending inventory − Units in beginning inventory)

= $4 per unit ×-2,100 = −$8,100

Variable costing net operating income$77,000

Deduct fixed manufacturing overhead costs released from inventoryunder absorption costing ($8,400)

Absorption costing net operating income $68,600

Therefore the absorption costing net operating income last year is $68,600
