1)

Computation of Difference between Operating Incomes under Absorption Costing and Variable Costing:

Difference between Operating Incomes under Absorption Costing and Variable Costing = Units in Ending Inventory * Fixed Manufacturing Cost per Unit

= (2000-1750)*$7

= 250 * 7

= 1750 higher

 

2)

Computation of Variable Production Costs:

Variable Production Costs = Total Cost of Goods Sold - Fixed Overhead

= $295,000 - $90,000

Variable Production Costs = $205,000
