|---|--------|--------|
| Income | $50,000 | $680,000 |

---
**Additional Information:**

a. **Sales and Production Data:**

| Units | Year 1 | Year 2 |
|---|-------|-------|
| Units Produced | 52,000 | 52,000 |
| Units Sold | 40,000 | 64,000 |

b. **Product Cost Using Absorption Costing:**

The company’s $33 per unit product cost (for both years) is detailed as follows:

- **Direct Materials:** $6

- **Variable Overhead:** $8
- **Fixed Overhead:** $10 (calculated based on $500,000/50,000 units)

**Total Product Cost Per Unit: $33**

Prepare a statement to convert variable costing income to absorption costing income for both years.

*(Note: Leave no cells blank and enter "0" where necessary.)*

**Income Conversion Table:**

| **Dowell Company** | **Convert Variable Costing Income to Absorption Costing Income** |
|---|---|---|
