When will profits reported under variable and absorption costing differ? How can we reconcile the profits reported under the two approaches? Profits reported under variable and absorption costing will differ when inventory increases or decreases during the year. The difference involves the timing with which fixed manufacturing overhead becomes an expense. Under variable costing‚ fixed overhead is expensed immediately as it is incurred. Under absorption costing‚ fixed overhead is inventoried until

Variable costing and absorption costing are the two most commonly used methods of inventory costing for manufacturing companies. The inventory method of variable costing takes place when total direct and indirect variable manufacturing costs are included within inventoriable costs. Fixed manufacturing costs however‚ are considered costs of the period under variable costing. The next method of inventory costing‚ absorption costing‚ includes all variable manufacturing costs as well as fixed manufacturing

Digestion/ Absorption and Homeostasis In order to survive‚ our bodies must bring in energy and nutrients for the cells of the body through eating and digestion of food. To be carried to the cells of the body by the blood stream‚ food must be broken down to molecules. This breaking down of food into molecules‚ small enough to be absorbed into and carried through the blood stream‚ is carried out by the digestive system through the process of digestion and absorption. Digestion is the process of

PAPER – 5 : ADVANCED MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING QUESTIONS Marginal Costing Vs. Absorption Costing 1. During the current period‚ ABC Ltd sold 60‚000 units of product at Rs. 30 per unit. At the beginning for the period‚ there were 10‚000 units in inventory and ABC Ltd manufactured 50‚000 units during the period. The manufacturing costs and selling and administrative expenses were as follows: Total cost Rs. Beginning inventory: Direct materials Direct labour Variable factory overhead Fixed factory overhead

Plant Transport Plants are mostly made up of water. Lettuce is about 94% water and a potato is about 77% water. Plants need water for three main purposes: ------photosynthesis‚ -support -transport of chemicals Water is a raw material for photosynthesis. If water is in short supply‚ the rate of photosynthesis will be limited. Plants need water for support‚ otherwise they wilt. Water is needed to transport many chemicals within plants. Chemicals‚ such as mineral salts‚ dissolve in water and

Variable costing vs Absorption costing Variable and Absorption costing are two different methods and ways that many organizations use to determine and calculate product cost. The income statements formats of both methods include period and product costs. However‚ each one has a different cost classification definition. Both have the same direct material and direct labor allocation‚ the differences is how they report the income‚ product‚ and pricing One of the main differences between

Abstract: This experiment explores the technique of absorption spectroscopy. The procedures deal with the wavelengths and absorption of dyes in a sample of grape Kool-aid. The use of Beer’s Law helps to determine values of absorption. Introduction: This experiment demonstrates another technique used in the analysis molecules with light. The study of light absorbed my molecules is known as absorption spectroscopy. This is very easily the opposite of emission spectroscopy because it occurs when
