of depreciation charges on production equipment and buildings.

year. Getting the company through its first quarter of operations placed a considerable strain on Ms.
Tyler’s personal finances. The following income statement for the first quarter was prepared by a friend
who has just completed a course in managerial accounting at State University.

215,000 430,800 Net operating loss $ ( 60,500) Ms. Tyler is discouraged over the loss shown for the quarter, particularly because she had planned to
use the statement as support for a bank loan. Another friend, a CPA, insists that the company should be
using absorption costing rather than variable costing and argues that if absorption costing had been used
the company would probably have reported at least some profit for the quarter.
At this point, Ms. Tyler is manufacturing only one product, a swimsuit. Production and cost data relating
to the swimsuit for the first quarter follow:
