Required:
Prepare comparative income statements, including a comparative schedule of cost of goods sold, for each of these three months in 2011 under each of the following:

1. Absorption costing (include under- or overapplied overhead).
2. Variable costing.

P10-10 Effect of taxes on break-even and target volume
P10-10 McDormand Products, Inc., desires an after-tax income of $500,000.

It has fixed costs of $2,500,000, a unit sales price of $300, and unit variable costs of $150, and is in the 40% tax bracket.

Required:
1. What amount of pre-tax income is needed to earn an after-tax income of $500,000?
2. What target volume sales revenue must be reached to earn the $500,000 after-tax income?
3. Assuming that this is a single-product firm, how many units must be sold to earn the after-tax income of $500,000?
4. What target volume sales revenue would have been needed to achieve the $500,000 of income had no income tax existed? 

P10-12R Comprehensive Review Problem: Break-even point; absorption and variable cost analysis similar to Self-Study Problem 1

P10-12R Tarbell Manufacturing Company has a maximum productive capacity of 210,000 units per year. Normal capacity is 180,000 units per year. Standard variable manufacturing costs are $10 per unit. Fixed factory overhead is $360,000 per year. Variable selling expense is $5 per unit, and fixed selling expense is $252,000 per year. The unit sales price is $20.

The operating results for the year are as follows: sales, 150,000 units; production, 160,000 units; beginning inventory, 10,000 units. All variances are written off as additions to (or deductions from) the standard cost of sales.

Required:
1. What is the break-even point expressed in dollar sales?
2. How many units must be sold to earn a net operating income of $100,000 per year?
3. Prepare a formal income statement for the year ended December 31, 2011 under the following:
a. Absorption costing. (Hint: Don’t forget to compute the volume variance.)
b. Variable costing.
