c. What is the reason for the difference in the amount of income from operations reported in (a) and (b)?
Under the
method, the fixed manufacturing cost included in the cost of goods sold is matched with the revenues. Under
all of the fixed manufacturing cost is deducted in the period in which it is
incurred, regardless of the amount of inventory change. Thus, when inventory increases, the
income statement will have a higher income from operations than will the variable costing income statement.
