The following table summarizes operations at the Newark UniCom plant for the years 2012 and 2013.    Fixed manufacturing overhead amounted to $4 million in each year. At the start of 2012, there were no beginning inventories of either 2.4-GHz or 6.0-GHz cordless phones. UniCom uses FIFO to value inventories. Required:  a.

At the end of the year, fixed manufacturing overhead is absorbed to the two phone models using direct material as the allocation base. c.
