2-40 Interpretation of statements (continuation of 2-39).
Required:
1. How would the answer to Problem 2-39 be modified if you were asked for a schedule of cost
of goods manufactured and sold instead of a schedule of cost of goods manufactured? Be
2-6
specific.
2. Would the sales manager’s salary (included in marketing, distribution, and customer-service
costs) be accounted for any differently if the Howell Corporation were a
merchandising-sector company instead of a manufacturing-sector company?
3. Using the flow of manufacturing costs outlined in Exhibit 2-9 (page 44), describe how the
wages of an assembler in the plant would be accounted for in this manufacturing company.
4. Plant supervisory salaries are usually regarded as manufacturing overhead costs. When might
some of these costs be regarded as direct manufacturing costs? Give an example.
5. Suppose that both the direct materials used and the plant and equipment depreciation are
related to the manufacture of 1 million units of product. What is the unit cost for the direct
materials assigned to those units? What is the unit cost for plant and equipment depreciation?
Assume that yearly plant and equipment depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis.
6. Assume that the implied cost-behavior patterns in requirement 5 persist. That is, direct
material costs behave as a variable cost and plant and equipment depreciation behaves as a
fixed cost. Repeat the computations in requirement 5, assuming that the costs are being
predicted for the manufacture of 1.2 million units of product. How would the total costs be
affected?
7. As a management accountant, explain concisely to the president why the unit costs differed
in requirements 5 and 6.
SOLUTION
(15–20 min.) Interpretation of statements (continuation of 2-39).
1. The schedule in 2-39 can become a Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured and Sold
simply by including the beginning and ending finished goods inventory figures in the supporting

5. Direct materials used = $320,000,000 ÷ 1,000,000 units = $320 per unit
6. Direct materials unit cost would be unchanged at $320 per unit. Depreciation cost per
7. Unit costs are averages, and they must be interpreted with caution. The $320 direct materials
unit cost is valid for predicting total costs because direct materials is a variable cost; total direct
materials costs indeed change as output levels change. However, fixed costs like depreciation

2-42 Terminology, interpretation of statements (continuation of 2-41).
Required:
1. Calculate total prime costs and total conversion costs.
2. Calculate total inventoriable costs and period costs.
3. Design costs and R&D costs are not considered product costs for financial statement
purposes. When might some of these costs be regarded as product costs? Give an example.
4. Suppose that both the direct materials used and the depreciation on plant and equipment are
related to the manufacture of 2 million units of product. Determine the unit cost for the direct
materials assigned to those units and the unit cost for depreciation on plant and equipment.
Assume that yearly depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis.
5. Assume that the implied cost-behavior patterns in requirement 4 persist. That is, direct
material costs behave as a variable cost and depreciation on plant and equipment behaves as
a fixed cost. Repeat the computations in requirement 4, assuming that the costs are being
predicted for the manufacture of 3 million units of product. Determine the effect on total
costs.
6. Assume that depreciation on the equipment (but not the plant) is computed based on the
number of units produced because the equipment deteriorates with units produced. The
depreciation rate on equipment is $1.50 per unit. Calculate the depreciation on equipment
assuming (a) 2 million units of product are produced and (b) 3 million units of product are
produced.
