(a) Prepare statements to show the profit earned in each of Years 2 and 3 using:
(i) Marginal Costing;
(ii) Absorption Costing.
You should indicate the over or under-absorption of Fixed Costs where
necessary.
In Year 4 Emily wishes to increase her sales to 10,000 units and earn a minimum of
£160,000 profit (using marginal costing).
She plans to:
• reduce her selling price to £40;
• reduce stocks to 400 units;
• employ efficiency measures to reduce the marginal cost per unit of
production.
Fixed costs in Year 4 are expected to be £40,000.
(b) (i) Assuming Emily proceeds with the above plan, calculate, using marginal
costing, the profit she can expect to make in Year 4 before employing
efficiency measures to reduce marginal costs.
(ii) Calculate the saving per unit in marginal costs which would be required
to achieve Emily’s target profit of £160,000 in Year 4.
(Your answer should be given to the nearest 1p)
