When production exceed sales the net operating income reported under variable costing generally will be?When sales exceed production, the net operating income reported under variable costing generally will be: greater than net operating income reported under absorption costing.
What happens when the production equals sales?If production and sales are equal, net income will be the same under absorption costing and variable costing. Since the units manufactured are all sold, absorption costing, like variable costing, will treat the total fixed manufacturing overhead as an expense of the period.
How do you calculate net operating income under variable costing?Calculate net income by subtracting the cost of goods sold and expenses from sales revenue. The difference represents net income for the current period.
What is the operating income under variable costing?What is a Variable Costing Income Statement? A variable costing income statement is one in which all variable expenses are deducted from revenue to arrive at a separately-stated contribution margin, from which all fixed expenses are then subtracted to arrive at the net profit or loss for the period.
