The VARCOST2 worksheet is capable of calculating variable and absorption income when unit sales are equal to or less than production. An equally common situation (that this worksheet cannot handle) is when beginning inventory is present and sales volume exceeds production volume. Revise the worksheet Data Section to include:
Beginning inventory in units 15,000
Beginning inventory cost (absorption) $266,875
Beginning inventory cost (variable) $210,000,
Also, change actual production to 70,000. Revise the Answer Section to accommodate this new data. Assume that Anderjak uses the weighted-average costing method for inventory. Preview the printout to make sure that the worksheet will print neatly on one page, and then print the worksheet. Check figure: Absorption income, $670,000.

(located in Lake Snobegon, Minnesota), produced 40,900 plastic snow scoops. Snow scoops are oversized shovel-type scoops that are used to push snow away. Unit sales were 38,900 scoops. Fixed overhead was applied at $0.75 per unit produced. Fixed overhead was underapplied by $2,900. This fixed overhead variance was closed to Cost of Goods Sold. There was no variable overhead variance. The results of the year's operations are as follows (on an absorption-costing basis): Sales (38,900 units @ $20) $778,000 Less: Cost of goods sold 547,260 Gross margin $230,740 Less: Selling and administrative expenses (all fixed) 184,500 Operating income $ 46,240 Required: 1.
