Answer 1

Solution :

Case 1:

Cost of goods sold (A) = Revenue - Gross Margin = $52,000 - $18,000 = $34,000

Cost of goods manufactured = DM used + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead + Beginning WIP - Ending WIP

= $13,000 +$4,500 + $9,500 + $3,000 -0 = $30,000

Ending finished goods inventory (B) = Beginning finished goods inventory + Cost of goods manufactured - Cost of goods sold

= $5,000 + $30,000 - $34,000 = $1,000

Case 2:

Gross margin (C) = Revenue - COGS = $52,300 - $31,800 = $20,500

Cost of goods manufactured = COGS + Ending finished goods inventory - Beginning finished goods inventory

= $318,500 + $7,000 - $7,000 = $31,800

Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead + Beginning WIP - Ending WIP = $31,800

$19,000 + $8,500 + Manufacturing overhead + $1,500 - $4,700 = $31,800

Manufacturing overhead (D) = $7,500
