1. Expenses that remain fixed irrespective of the number of units produced are fixed expenses. Cost of goods sold is considered as variable expense.
Expenses are identified as below:
Cost of goods sold : Variable
Advertising expense: Fixed
Shipping expense: Mixed
Salaries & commission: Mixed
Insurance expense: Fixed
Depreciation expense: Fixed
2. We need to segregate the mixed expense into fixed and variable expenses. From the above classification, we can see that shipping expense and salaries & commission are mixed expenses.We will classify them into fixed and variable as per below:
Shipping expense:
Expense at 4000 units = 34000
Expense at 4500 units = 36000
Variable shipping expense = Change in expense / Change in units
Variable shipping expense = 36000 - 34000 / 4500 - 4000
Variable shipping expense = 2000 / 500 = 4 per unit
Total variable shipping expense for 4000 units = 4000 * 4 = 16000
Total fixed shipping expense for 4000 units = 34000 - 16000 = 18000
Total variable shipping expense for 4500 units = 4500 * 4 = 18000
Total variable shipping expense for 5000 units = 5000 * 4 = 20000
Required cost formula is:
Cost formula = Fixed expense + Variable expense per unit * No. of units sold
Cost formula = 18000 + 4x
where, x is number of units sold
Salaries & commission expense:
Expense at 4000 units = 78000
Expense at 4500 units = 84000
Variable salaries & commission expense = Change in expense / Change in units
Variable salaries & commission expense = 78000 - 84000 / 4500 - 4000
Variable salaries & commission expense = 6000 / 500 = 12 per unit
Total variable salaries & commission expense for 4000 units = 4000 * 12 = 48000
Total fixed salaries & commission expense for 4000 units = 78000 - 48000 = 30000
Total variable salaries & commission expense for 4500 units = 4500 * 12 = 54000
Total salaries & commission expense for 5000 units = 5000 * 12 = 60000
Required cost formula is:
Cost formula = Fixed expense + Variable expense per unit * No. of units sold
Cost formula = 30000 + 12x
where, x is number of units sold
3. We will now prepare the contribution format income statement. In the contribution format income statement, we will take the variable parts and fixed parts of expenses separately.
Contribution format income statement:
