* Variable manufacturing costs of $8.00 plus fixed manufacturing costs of $2.00.
** The $2.00 fixed manufacturing cost per unit is based on budgeted production of 50,000 units.
Since actual production was only 45,000,an unfavorable volume variance of $10,000 occurred.
The company uses a standard costing system.The only variance that occurred during the period was the $10,000 unfavorable volume variance.
Required:
1)Prepare an income statement for Michie Company under variable costing.
2)Compute the breakeven point in units (total fixed costs ÷ unit contribution margin)under variable costing.
