I am really struggling with the above, especially calculating the absorption cost profit when given the information, it’s any question I come across, any advice?
March 18, 2016 at 7:12 am #306878Have you watched the free lectures on absorption and marginal costing?
If you have, and still have a problem, then you need to quote examples because all questions are slightly different 🙂

the budgeted manufacturing cost of Product X are as follows: –
Direct Materials per unit : $24
Direct Labour per unit : $24
Fixed Production Costs: $20A supplier has offered to supply goods at a rate of $60. Should the company buy the product or continue making it.
March 28, 2016 at 1:44 pm #308471Why are you expecting me to provide an answer?
Surely the book in which you found the question also has an answer – you should ask what part of the answer is causing you a problem!!
They will prefer to make it themselves because the marginal cost of production is cheaper than the cost of buying externally.
