c) Income under both approaches are different. In absorption costing closing stock is calculated on total manufacturing cost whereas in variable costing, closing stock is valued on variable manufacturing cost only. And thus closing stock is less in variable costing as well profit is also lower (if production is more than sales). And vice versa.
All costs are same in both cases except closing stock value, which is more in variable costing in year 2 and thus profit is also more in yr 2. And vice versa in year 1.
d) Managers uses absorption costing information as
- managers wishes to put fixed cost as production cost and thus increases production cost and avail tax benefiits
- It compliance with GAAP and calculates more accurate profit amount.
