Taryn Dalton · Answer 1

21,200 units

Explanation:

For determining the sales, first we have to compute the net operating income difference which is shown below:

= Net operating income under absorption costing - Net operating income under variable costing

= $89,000 - $74,600

= $14,400

Now the inventory units increased by

= $14,400 : 12 per unit

= 1,200 units

And, the production units are 22,400

So, the sales would be

= 22,400 units - 1,200 units

= 21,200 units
