Variable Costing Net Profit                                                                    5,800

Explanation:

Product Cost (Variable Costing) = All Variable Manufacturing Costs

                                                     = $27 + $46 + $4

                                                     = $77

Product Cost (Absorption Costing) = All Variable Manufacturing Costs + All Fixed Manufacturing Costs

                                                          = $77 + ($199,200/8,300)

                                                          = $77 + $24

                                                          = $101

Income Statements

Non Manufacturing Costs are treated as a Periodic Cost in Absorption Costing Income Statement

Whilst Both Fixed Manufacturing Costs and Non Manufacturing Costs are treated as a Periodic Cost in Variable Costing Income Statement.
