    Hi John

    Ito Over-absorbed overheads and full production cost, which one of the two below is correct? Please note that both scenarios are absorption costing.
    Option 1
    units $
    Sales 5200 156000
    COS $21 (0+5800-600) (83,200)
    Over-absorbed Overhead 1,600
    (Under-absorbed Overhead)
    Fixed Overheads $5 5200 (26,000)
    Full Production cost (107600)

    Gross Profit 48,400
    Net Profit 48,400

    Option 2
    units $
    Sales 5200 156000
    COS $21 (0+5800-600) (83,200)
    (Under-absorbed Overhead)
    Fixed Overheads $5 5200 (26,000)
    Full Production cost (109200)

    Gross Profit 46,800
    Over-absorbed Overhead 1,600

    Net Profit 48,400

    In other words :
    Is gross profit $46800 or $48400?
    Is over absorbed overhead a part of full production cost of sales?
