Question - Each line uses the same equipment and labour so there are no traceable fixed costs. Rainbow Bridge began selling memorial urns for dogs and cats in 2018. Due to the great success of this venture, Rainbow decided to start selling memorial statues in 2019 and in 2020 commenced memorial photo frames.
Each Urn sells for $50, each statue sells for $80 and each photo frame sells for $30. The variable cost for urn is $30, the statue is $48 and the photo frame is $15. Fixed costs are $130,000.
Rainbow's accounting system for the year ended 2021 showed sales of 12,000 units for urns, 6,000 units for statues and 24,000 units for photo frames.
