What amount should have been reported as variable costs in the company's contribution margin income statement for the year in question?

Respuesta :

Answer:

variable cost = $2,000,00

Explanation:

given data

sold  = 200,000

price = $15 each

Fixed costs = $400,000

pretax income = $600,000

solution

we know that Pre-tax income that is express as

Pre-tax income = Sales - variable cost - fixed cost   ..............1

and here sale is

Sales = Number of units sold × selling price per unit   .......................2

put value in equation 2 we get sale

Sales =  200,000 units × $15

Sales = $3,000,000

now put all value in equation 1 and we get variable cost that is

$600,000 = $3,000,000 - variable cost - $400,000

solve it we get

variable cost = $2,000,00
