Mccrone Corporation has provided the following data for its two most recent years of operation: Selling price per unit $ 59 Manufacturing costs: Variable manufacturing cost per unit produced: Direct materials $ 11 Direct labor $ 6 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 4 Fixed manufacturing overhead per year $ 88,000 Selling and administrative expenses: Variable selling and administrative expense per unit sold $ 4 Fixed selling and administrative expense per year $ 80,000 Year 1 Year 2 Units in beginning inventory 0 1,000 Units produced during the year 11,000 8,000 Units sold during the year 10,000 5,000 Units in ending inventory 1,000 4,000 The net operating income (loss) under variable costing in Year 1 is closest to:

$172,000

Explanation:

The solution of net operating income (loss) under variable costing in Year 1 is provided below:-

To find out the net operating income (loss) first we need to follow some steps which are as follows:-

Step 1

Total unit product cost = Direct material + Direct Labor + Variable manufacturing overhead

= $11 + $6 + $4

= $21

Step 2

Gross contribution margin = Sales - (Beginning inventory + variable cost of goods manufactured + Variable cost of goods available for sale - Ending inventory)

= ($59 × 10,000) - (0 + ($21 × 11,000) - ($21 × 1000)

= $590,000 - (0 + $231,000 - $21,000)

= $590,000 - $210,000

= $380,000

and finally

Net Operating income = Gross contribution margin - Variable selling and administrative expenses - Manufacturing - Selling and administrative expenses

= $380,000 - (10,000 × $4) - $88,000 - $80,000

= $380,000 - $40,000 - $88,000 - $80,000

= $172,000

To reach  we simply put the values into formula.

odd consecutive integers are odd integers that follow each other. they have a difference of 2 between every two numbers. if n is an odd integer, then n, n+2, n+4 and n+6 will be odd consecutive integers. the first number in the pattern is always the variable on its own or in this case, "n". examples.
