Two products, QI and VH, emerge from a joint process. Product QI has been allocated $9,600 of the total joint costs of $12,000. A total of 9,000 units of product QI are produced from the joint process.

Lusk Corporation produces and sells 10,000 units of Product X each month. The selling price of Product X is $40 per unit, and variable expenses are $32 per unit. A study has been made concerning whether Product X should be discontinued. The study shows that $70,000 of the $120,000 in monthly fixed expenses charged to Product X would not be avoidable even if the product was discontinued.

What is the impact of Units Produced & Sold on Absorption Costing v. Variable Costing Income?
Units Produced = Units Sold = Op. Income is same in Absorption & Variable Costing
Units Produced > Units Sold = Absorption Op Income > Variable Op Income
Units Produced < Units Sold = Absorption Op Income < Variable Op Income
Supply costs at Coulthard Corporation’s chain of gyms are listed below:
Client-
Visits Supply Cost March 12,855 $ 23,598 April 12,283 $ 23,278 May 13,104 $ 23,742 June 12,850 $ 23,607 July 12,493 $ 23,415 August 12,794 $ 23,562 September 12,686 $ 23,496 October 12,765 $ 23,541 November 13,018 $ 23,687
Management believes that supply cost is a mixed cost that depends on client-visits. Use the high-low method to estimate the variable and fixed components of this cost. Compute the variable component first, rounding off using three decimal places. Then compute the fixed component, rounding off to the nearest whole dollar. Those estimates are closest to:
a.
$1.850 per client-visit; $23,547 per month
b.
$1.700 per client-visit; $557 per month
c.
$0.565 per client-visit; $16,338 per month
d.
$0.550 per client-visit; $16,579 per month
High Low Method
Calculating Total Cost [TC = FC + UVC X U]
$23,278 = $0.565 x 12,283 + TFC
c. $0.565 per client visit; $16,338 per month
How are Total & Unit Variable Costs impacted by changes in Activity?
Total Variable Costs (TVC) change in total with changes in activity.
Unit Variable Costs (UVC or VC/U) do not change as activity changes; aka marginal costs.
