Final Answer :
a.$41 DL + $15 DM + $150 VOH = $206 per unit under variable costing
b.$206 + ($4,340,000/62,000)FOH = $276 per unit under absorption costing
c.(62,000 units - 59,000 units)× $206 per unit = $618,000 ending inventory under variable costing
d.(62,000 units - 59,000 units)× $276 per unit = $828,000 ending inventory under absorption costing
