Answer:

c. $17,400

Explanation:

The computation of the net operating income under absorption costing is given below:

unit product cost under Absorption costing

direct materials $29

direct labor $71

variable manufacturing overhead $17

fixed manufacturing overhead ($142,500 ÷ 9,500) $15

unit product cost $132

Now

Sales (9,100 × 156) $1,419,600

less:Variable cost of good sold (9,100 × 132) $1,201,200

Gross profit $218,400

Selling and administrative expense

variable selling expens (9,100 × 21) $191,100

Fixed selling & adm expense $9,900

Net operating income $17,400
