No, two months would have the same net income.
Ans: Option ( D) No, two months would have the same net income.
Explanation:
1) Unit Cost:
Jan | Feb | Mar | |
Sales P.U( a) | $9 | $9 | $9 |
Less: | |||
Variable Manufa. OH | $2.50 | $2.50 | $2.50 |
Fixed Manufa. OH( 100,000/50,000); ( $100,000/40,000);( $100,000/50,000) | $2 | $2.50 | $2 |
Total Cost ( b) | $4.5 | $5 | $4.5 |
Contribution Margin Per Unit ( a - b) | $4.5 | $4 | $4.5 |
Multiply By : Sales | 44,000 | 45,000 | 45000 |
Total Contribution Margin | $198,000 | $180,000 | $202,500 |
2) So, as we can see no two months have same contribution margin, therefore we can conclude no two months havdm same net income.
